Fedora Flathub Selection installs instead of Flathub

Hi!

On a fresh Silverblue install, not opting-in for third party repositories after installation, i tried to add Flathub remote following official instructions. Both flatpakrepo file and command line methods install Fedora Flathub Selection (and it is named that way in Software sources, and on application pages’ sources too) instead of the usual Flathub. It seems that it’s not actually a filtered Flathub, but for some reason it is still named that way.

Is there a way to check that? Maybe search for some app not available through filter? Is it a bug?

Use flatpak remotes to list all available flatpak “repos”.

If only the “real” Flathub is enabled, it should look like this:

With fedora remote it looks like this:

$ flatpak remotes
Name    Optionen
fedora  system,oci
flathub system

I don’t have the fedora filtered flathub anymore. But with flatpak remote-delete you can remove all and then add just flathub:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

Flathub Flatpak Repository Inaccurately Named By Default

TL;DR I think this issue has been resolved, likely upstream in the fedora-third-party package. Ran into this issue on a Fedora system I set up about a year ago.

After booting I opened /var/lib/flatpak/repo/config and confirmed there’s no Flathub/Flatpak configuration by default, as expected. Then I opened up GNOME Software and clicked Enable for third party software repositories and went bac…
