Software installed version of app is launching instead of local build

1

I have my local build that has the latest update v0.9.11. When I try to launch it with:

flatpak -vv run io.greenfire.Greenery

it stops execution and does not launch the Login Screen. I have tried verbose debugging and the GDB shell but have not found a solution for why the local build fails to launch the UI

In addition I can install the v0.9.10 version from the Software app that is the active remote flathub build. However when I run through flatpak like this:

flatpak -vv run io.greenfire.Greenery

It sometimes launches the the Software app version which is v0.9.10. So could there be corruption / misconfiguration for the local build? I have been using the above command to launch my local version which is in this path:

/home/lexton/.local/share/flatpak/app/io.greenfire.Greenery

I can run my local build directly like this:

flatpak run io.greenfire.Greenery//master

and the Software app installed version is under stable and can be run like this:

flatpak run io.greenfire.Greenery//stable

So is this a branch issue? I normally test my updates in a branch called: greenery - locally on my hard drive. When I create a local build is it installing to master?

I’m also now seeing my local Greenery build show up in the Software app but it lists v0.9.10 and can’t be open, instead it shows an Install button.

Where is the stable version installed (system or user)?

If it’s installed in the system installation, then Flatpak should prefer the one in the user installation when you don’t specify a branch.

If they’re both installed in the same installation, then Flatpak uses the current symlink, which can be manipulated with flatpak make-current. flatpak install automatically makes the newly installed branch current (within its installation only).
