Problems Updating Flatpak Via Terminal: org.kde.Platform

Hello, everyone.

This popped up for me out of the blue, while performing my regular Flatpak system update:

2. [✗] org.kde.Platform                          5.15             u            flathub             1,1 kB / 371,8 MB

I don’t know what it is or what it means. Could someone enlighten me or explain what’s going on?

Thanks.

P.S.: this problem/message also appears using Discover.

sudo flatpak repair & flatpak repair --usershould resolve this.

if you have a internet blip, sometimes these things happen.

If after what suggested by @hamrheadcorvette your still failed to install the *.Platform packages, your can try by using sudo flatpak install org.kde.Platform.

Use only sudo flatpak install if you’re having trouble installing any packages that have name Platform.

My understanding, it’s need sudo because the Platform packages need to access certain resources from your system.
