Hi @Ahmedsaed
Do you mind sharing the .flatpak file for 2.6.1? I am not very experienced with flatpak, and i'm having way to much problems creating it from source :smiling_face_with_tear:

I haven't used any Flatpaks in my setup. I also believe that freerdp is not available through FlatHub.
As I have mentioned above. You can workaround this issue by using distrobox and export the program to the host.
- Using Distrobox or similar solutions to run a Linux container that has the binaries for the correct version in the repositories.
- Use distrobox-export to export the binary to host system. Ex: distrobox-export --bin /usr/bin/xfreerdp ~/.local/bin

Thank you. I installed CentOS on distrobox and used wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/freerdp-2.1.1-2.el7.x86_64.rpm
Then sudo yum install freerdp-2.1.1-2.el7.x86_64.rpm and finally the export command.
It is now working!
Thank you :smile:
Describe the bug The behavior of the FreeRDP dependency differs from user expectations due to the discrepancy between the version packaged in certain Linux distributions and the version marked as latest by the developer. Updating the documentation or providing a warning within the application may help guide users encountering this issue.
Steps to Reproduce:
/app
argument.Expected Behavior: FreeRDP should properly handle the
/app
argument and perform the intended operation without issues.Actual Behavior: In the latest couple of released versions of FreeRDP (e.g., version 3.4.0), using the
/app
argument causes FreeRDP to print the help message and exit instead of executing the desired operation.System information:
Impact: This issue affects users relying on FreeRDP distro packages, particularly those needing to use the /app argument.
Workaround:
distrobox-export
to export the binary to host system. Ex:distrobox-export --bin /usr/bin/xfreerdp ~/.local/bin
