Flatpak fails to update (Flatpak 8.9.4 update missing)

Hi,

I currently have the flatpak installed on my computer. I think either flatpak cannot handle updates properly or there is a problem with 1Password's releases for flatpak. When an update is released, the store (Pop Shop in my case) shows a notification about it. When I try to update the package, it starts to download but fails to update. This is the output of it when I try to update via CLI:

I just did a clean install of Fedora Workstation 37, I installed 1Password Flatpak with version 8.9.4.

Before when I did 1Password installations I was stuck with version 8.6.1 and no updates, while the latest version available was higher than this one.

@tunix you can check what version of 1Password you have at the moment and check if you have any 1Password updates.

I'm currently on 8.9.4 -- when I did a manual flatpak update command, it successfully upgraded. It didn't update itself as flatpak normally do. We'll see how it goes when a new version comes.

I am on version 8.9.4 and version 8.9.8 was released this November 1st, when checking for updates in flatpak I have no new ones from 1Password, the problem seems to still persist.

It seems the only solution is to publish 1Password on https://flathub.org and send updates directly there.

This has been going on almost more than a year.. 😔

  • I never saw a 1Password update in GNOME Software
  • The only proper way of updating 1Password is through the CLI
  • Quite often the situation in below screenshot is the case.

After installing via flatpak instructions on my HoloISO/Steamdeck laptop, I'm getting the following error:

Error updating appstream2: No such red 'appstream2/x86_64' in remote onepassword-origin

If I try to go to the installed section of Discover, it crashes the Discover app

Only way to continue is by removing 1password through the Terminal directly

Any idea how to correct? I'd really like to have it on my system, but can't if it crashes Discover every time it opens.

Hey @ssjbardock, thanks for reaching out. I understand you're encountering an issue with 1Password installed via Flatpak on your Steam Deck causing Discover to crash. It appears like a couple of other users have also encountered the same problem and we currently have an internal issue opened for further investigation. We'll be sure to reach out to you with any updates regarding this issue.
