Error deploying: While trying to apply extra data: apply_extra script failed, exit status 256

I'm attempting to install this flatpak on a new system running Fedora 39 (flathub is enabled). I receive the error message below:

Error: Error deploying: While trying to apply extra data: apply_extra script failed, exit status 256 error: Failed to install com.synology.SynologyDrive: Error deploying: While trying to apply extra data: apply_extra script failed, exit status 256

I tried on a couple different computers (Pop OS 22.04 and another Fedora 39) and received the same error. It happens when I run flatpak install com.synology.SynologyDrive or when trying to install through the graphical Gnome software center.

Also having this exact issue on Fedora 39 Silverblue.

Please feel free to reach to to me for any testing I can do to help.

I'm also having the same issue on a fresh install of Fedora 39. Two or three weeks ago, I was able to install this package on a different machine that also had a fresh install of Fedora 39.

The problem seems to be this: ar: error while loading shared libraries: libbfd-2.41.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I saw a similar error in other flatpaks. One solution was to switch from ar to bsdtar which should be included in the runtime. Could this help here, too?

I was playing around flatpak-builder from inside a distrobox container (I'm also on silverblue). Changing the line calling ar inside the yaml file to bsdtar -xf synology-drive.deb does appear to give a successful build.

However, I can't confirm that the build works. I can't yet figure out how to successfully run the flatpak from inside distrobox, nor could I figure out how to install from the build-dir outside the box.

As a workaround until the flatpak is fixed, I was able to create a debian distrobox container, install some graphical and net-tool dependencies, then install synology-drive from the deb file with dpkg. I can now open drive from inside the debian container; it stays running until the next reboot.

I tested the most recent build and can confirm what @feab5 said about the lack of tray icons. Also for me, on opening the application once, it appears not to run (no syncing occurs). If I open again, I am presented with the synology-drive system menu, and syncing works, but I have no icon in my gnome AppIndicator panel.

Is there a fix or workaround for this issue? I tried installing the test build, but I get a 404 error I'm still unable to install the Drive package on Fedora 39 Thank you!

This should soon be resolved with the next build, let me know!

[AmrEldib]

This resolved it. I can install it now on Fedora 39. Thank you very much!

Great! @AmrEldib Thanks for the response!
