stable version + flatpak / flathub.org - difference

[George1]

Hello,

On https://flathub.org/apps/details/net.minetest.Minetest website is information about current version: 5.4.1

When I run the command: flatpak remote-info flathub net.minetest.Minetest I see the version 5.1.0:

Code: Select all

      Date: 2019-10-13 11:42:28 +0000

Output of "flatpak update" is "Nothing to do.".

What could be reason that I see an older version?


Is it related to "Arch: i386"? Is this architecture still maintained?

My operating system:
Linux antiX-19.2 Hannie Schaft
(based on Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster))

$uname -m
i686

The only reason you see an older version is that the Flatpak version is outdated.

You need to contact the Flatpak package maintainer and ask them to update the Minetest version.

... the Flatpak version is outdated.

Well.., I was a little bit surprised when someone else did the installation from Flatpak repository, and he saw version 5.4.1 on his system.

Maybe run an update with the --verbose parameter to see what's going on.

Was the app even installed from FlatHub?

Code: Select all

flatpak list --columns=application,origin

This gives you the repos for your installed apps.

I have only one flatpak repository.
I see nothing suspicious running commands (but I'm not an expert):

Code: Select all

$ flatpak --version
Flatpak 1.2.5

$ flatpak list --columns=application,origin
