Solved Flatpak Update fails

[tinfoil-hat]

You should be able to unpin them, when using the right now. When I check mine for those they look like this.

flatpak info  org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale
            ID: org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale
           Ref: runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale/x86_64/23.08

Do the same for you and see what the output is.

it says to me I have 2 branches of the same package installed

└─$ flatpak info org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale
Fehler: Multiple branches available for org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale, you must specify one of: org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale/x86_64/23.08, org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale/x86_64/21.08

Here's the output:

└─$ flatpak uninstall --unused

Nothing unused to uninstall

Try one of these.

flatpak pin --remove runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default/x86_64/21.08 runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale/x86_64/21.08

Try one of these.

Thanks, now I am a bit closer to the solution, now just org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default is pinned

here's my history

Try just doing that one alone.

flatpak pin --remove runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default/x86_64/21.08

that was it, thank you very much!!!

Are you able to update now, using "flatpak update" and are the 23.08 versions installed?
