Package: flatpak
Version: 0.10.2.1-1
Severity: important


Dear Maintainer,

It seems flatpak has very fragile path assumptions. I have a basic setup
with 2 HDDs, where in I have my /var/tmp/ as a symlink pointing to a
secondary location. This shouldn't be tagged an unusual setup.

But flatpak fails to run....

rrs@priyasi:~$ flatpak run com.skype.Client
bwrap: Can't make symlink at /var/tmp: File exists
10:47 ♒♒♒    ☹  => 1  
rrs@priyasi:~$ file /var/tmp
/var/tmp: symbolic link to /media/SSHD/var/tmp/
10:47 ♒♒♒   ☺

This must be a bug with this particular flatpak. Because I just ran
digikam flatpak and it ran successfully. Hence, closing.
