Solved Flatpak Update fails

[tinfoil-hat]

Hi, when i try to do a flatpak update I get:

Info: (pinned) runtime org.freedesktop.Platform.Locale branch 21.08 is end-of-life, with reason:
   org.freedesktop.Platform 21.08 is no longer receiving fixes and security updates. Please update to a supported runtime version.


Info: (pinned) runtime org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default branch 21.08 is end-of-life, with reason:
   org.freedesktop.Platform 21.08 is no longer receiving fixes and security updates. Please update to a supported runtime version.

Any ideas on how to fix?

open update manager...either via menu or by clicking on the update icon in the system tray

click on Edit. and then on software sources, and then on PPA's

Tell/show me what is there

In Terminal:

COpy and paste back the result, Please.

be sure to copy and paste the terminal command above....there is a space between uninstall and the first -

In Terminal:

flatpak uninstall --unused

COpy and paste back the result, Please.

Here's the output:

Nichts zu tun.

That is fine

AFAIK 23.07 is not the default, try the following to unpin them.

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

Try just running this then.

Get creative with the "flatpak pin --remove" command that's how I removed the ones that were pinned for me. You just have to find the right naming of your flatpaks. Maybe then this?

seems like they are pinned now. How can I upgrade them? or should I leave it just as it is?

 

[f33dm3bits]

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.
