Flatpak password popups after 21.1 update

Post by listur »

It seems like ever since I have updated to 21.1 I get a large amount of password popups for Flatpak updates. 2 or 3 times a day I get two in a row for flatpak.modify-repo and flatpak.appstream-update. Also, if there are any updates found there is also a popup for flatpak.app-update. Sometimes I have to enter my password 5 or 6 times in a row before all the updates are complete. I asked on Reddit and verified that my hash for /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.Flatpak.policy is correct and the default value. Is this normal behavior or some sort of bug from the update? Is there anything else I can check or do to make this less annoying? Thank you!

Hello

When logged on directly on the computer's console, I don't have any issue, but logged on via xrdp, then I got the same behavior you describe...
I suspect some privilege are not set correctly by xrdp in my case, but still annoying...
