From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

First try a running the update with a verbose flag and see if there's any errors
flatpak update -v
If you don't spot anything obvious, try a
sudo flatpak repair
and then reboot your system (or just restartflatpak-system-helper.service
) and see if that fixes it.As a last resort, you may need to uninstall all your apps using
flatpak uninstall --all --delete-data
After that, you’ll have to clean clean up your
~/.var/apps
,~/.local/share/flatpak
, and/var/lib/flatpak
directories. You could also try running Flatsweep.The reinstall all your flatpak apps.
Yeah...
I tried
flatpak update -v
with no luck.sudo flatpak repair
and then reboot does not work either.flatpak uninstall --all
it is. Then, I just used Déjà Dup to restore the app configurations, that I had backup.Also. Thanks for recommending Flatsweep, that is the coolest thing I got out of all of this.
