Thank you for the reply. I'm willing to try that. Fedora provides flatpak. It
looks like it would install about a GB.
After testing, can I used `flatpack uninstall ...` to remove everything that
`flatpak install flathub org.kde.okular` loaded?

My laptop has no CD drive, but it has USB 3 and 64 GB RAM, so I can boot ISOs
copied to usb sticks (which is how I tested Fedora 40 before updating to it),
but I would rather test with flatpak or a VM first.

```$ flatpak install flathub org.kde.okular
Looking for matches…
