The flatpak package (the bottom one) is also &#39;confirmed&#39; as affected, and will be updated. The two which are &#39;fix released&#39; aren&#39;t strictly relevant - the first is the main page for flatpak on launchpad, not the package itself, and the second was tagged so the bug was mentioned in the release notes (which it was, so &#39;fix released&#39;).<br/> <img src="https://cdn.masto.host/floss/media_attachments/files/115/350/518/527/121/594/original/bd590412df4d62f2.png"> <br/> 2025-10-10T15:19:11Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqjemx4qr48qgxcw04jful0gpekz928jd3cp736m567hmr8tr3juszyrlclne79quxkk2g4qzylced623qvtrvgxwd8zpw5nq0se9v4mzdsvemf8l An annoyance for anyone who&#39;s installed Ubuntu 25.10, but a fix is on the way<br/><br/><a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/10/flatpak-broken-ubuntu-25-10-apparmor-bug">https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/10/flatpak-broken-ubuntu-25-10-apparmor-bug</a><br/><br/>#Ubuntu #Flatpak #Linux 2025-10-10T01:46:42Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs8q8n048spn6ckgsem57w6yacw95dz840f8xykadpvx5z2sh83ujczyrlclne79quxkk2g4qzylced623qvtrvgxwd8zpw5nq0se9v4mzdsqtnrrr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvfk2drhawutj6um7vae4puchfgafltsjtdhxph6zjywv4n4qwh7g47x0w0'>nevent1q…x0w0</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Here, there; it&#39;s all good.
