I’ve been trying for several days to update Edge with COSMIC Atomic. Keep getting the error below. Its probably not a Fedora problem but rather a Flatpak problem. Nevertheless, can anyone hazard a guess as to why Edge wont update?
Sounds like this issue:
(found via the below:)
Thanks for sharing that. So it was a Microsoft probem. One of the posts references a mitigation to fix the problem, but it didn’t work on my system.
sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/microsoft-edge.repo > /dev/null <<'EOF'
[microsoft-edge]
name=microsoft-edge
baseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/edge/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc
EOF
That fixes the rpm/dnf repo and has nothing to do with your flatpak problems

Looks like Flathub has merged the PR to include the newly available .deb in the Flatpak.
But right now there isn’t a new build (at time of writing, it says “built 7 days ago”).
I guess it’s a matter of waiting but I don’t know how long it takes for Flathub to make the newly built version available.
So I guess the solution is be patient and keep checking periodically.

I’m on Fedora 43 and when I try “flatpak install com.microsoft.Edge” is seems to work (I didn’t follow through and install it since I don’t want to have it, but maybe you should retry
flatpak install com.microsoft.Edge
Looking for matches…

Which do you want to use (0 to abort)? [0-2]:
I’ve got it installed. It just wont update when I run flatpak update.
