All I get is this lousy error on the Flatpak installation with Linux Mint 21

Protontricks was closed due to the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/app/lib/python3.9/site-packages/protontricks/cli/util.py", line 148, in wrapper return cli_func(self, *args, **kwargs) File "/app/lib/python3.9/site-packages/protontricks/cli/main.py", line 228, in main steam_apps = get_steam_apps( File "/app/lib/python3.9/site-packages/protontricks/steam.py", line 1106, in get_steam_apps if not path.is_dir(): File "/usr/lib/python3.9/pathlib.py", line 1439, in is_dir return S_ISDIR(self.stat().st_mode) File "/usr/lib/python3.9/pathlib.py", line 1232, in stat return self._accessor.stat(self) PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/media/denton/2nd Disk/SteamLibrary'

=============

Please include this entire error message when making a bug report. Log messages:

Running inside Flatpak sandbox, version 1.12.7. Found Steam directory at /home/denton/.local/share/Steam Using Steam directory at /home/denton/.local/share/Steam. You can also define Steam directory manually using $STEAM_DIR Using default Steam Runtime at /home/denton/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime WINETRICKS environment variable is not available. Searching from $PATH. Found 2 Steam library folders

Have you added the directory to the list of allowed directories per these Flatpak-specific instructions:

By default, Protontricks only has access to the Steam installation directory. You will need to add filesystem permissions for additional Steam library locations, and other directories when running external EXEs.

In order to grant access to other directories, you can use the Flatseal graphical utility or the flatpak override command (eg. flatpak override --user --filesystem=<PATH> com.github.Matoking.protontricks) to grant access to other directories.

For example, to grant access to /mnt/MySSD/SteamLibrary, you can run the following command:

flatpak override --user --filesystem=/mnt/MySSD/SteamLibrary com.github.Matoking.protontricks

Protontricks should warn in case it lacks permission to one of the Steam library folders. Please check if adding it manually fixes the issue.

Adding the directory doesn't make a difference. I fixed it by deleting that Steam library folder through Steam since it was empty.
