Distro: Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon
Flatpak version: 1.12.7
Issue: When I run flatpak update, it wants to install org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default//20.08, and it provides a warning that the runtime is EoL. If I allow flatpak update to install this runtime, and then I run flatpak list --app --app-runtime org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default//20.08, the results are blank. Manually uninstalling org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default//20.08 does not return an error (as it is seemingly not used by any apps), but running flatpak update again causes flatpak to try reinstalling it.

Why does flatpak want to install an end-of-life runtime that isn’t used by any app?
