Comment 1 Yaakov Selkowitz 2025-04-02 21:00:56 UTC
To be clear, this is not specific to the flatpak.  The code is not compatible with the latest gtk4 in Fedora 42 and later.  Since upstream is oriented to Flathub, and the GNOME 47 runtime will stay supported a while longer, they may not get around to fixing this for some time.  Therefore, the Fedora package maintainer may need to create a fix themselves or get help from the community to do so, otherwise this package should probably be retired from Fedora (which would be unfortunate).

I made a small patch to use until the upstream fixes it. It should run fine now.
