flatpak installation on ubuntu 22.04 read all files from directory reads OK, from /run/user/1000/doc/70be0a1a/Photos/IMG_20170827_132616.jpg (eg)

tries to write back to /run/flatpak/doc/70be0a1a/Photos/IMG_20160921_143850.jpg.orig which does not exist

installation of version 1.4.0 from ubuntu repositories on 23.10 works perfectly.

Sorry, I can't help here … I have nothing to do with the Flatpak packaging. Esp. if the normal distribution package works as expected, it's likely a Flatpak issue … hopefully, someone who has some insight of Flatpak can help here?!
Comment 3 Tobias Leupold 2024-02-09 11:27:57 UTC
Did you try Ubuntu's 1.5.0 package? The distribution-specific one? Just to check if this one works?!
Comment 4 Tobias Leupold 2024-02-09 12:05:38 UTC
I just tried KGeoTag 1.5.0 installed from FlatHub on my Gentoo system. Works as expected.

Maybe this is a local problem on your machine? Some permissions not set?!
Comment 5 Kim 2024-02-10 20:01:16 UTC
SOLVED
I used flatseal to add host file permissions and now it works as expected, so no problem with kgeotag, just another system to learn.
Can also use "sudo flatpak override [app id] --filesystem=host"
Thanks for the tips

Thanks for the update. I'm closing this then :-)
