I tried to reinstall Inform7, but keep getting the following error:

Any ideas on how to reinstall it?

Thank you

I've never seen this error before, but it looks like a corrupted installation, maybe a download got interrupted at some point. Googling Flatpak "couldn't find file object" brought me to this: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/4116 Maybe some of the suggestions there will help you?

Hi (and Happy New Year!)

Alas, even after following all the steps specified there, I still get the same error :/

ptomato commented 2 years ago

Oh no! If the suggestions for repairing it there didn't work, maybe try uninstalling it before reinstalling it, if you haven't already? Otherwise I'm not really an expert on corrupted installations, maybe you could try opening an issue in flatpak/flatpak to ask for help?

Yeah, eventually I got it to work -- by completely uninstalling and then reinstalling flatpak. Good news is, now Inform7 works :)

Thank you very much for your help!
