[GNC] Chromebooks

[Adrien Monteleone]

Perhaps someone more familiar with flatpak can chime in, but my suspicion is a permissions issue either with your user not belonging to a particular group (possibly there is a flatpak group) or the group in question itself doesn’t have appropriate permissions.

I’d investigate along those lines first.

The I/O socket problem I’d think had something to do with your internet connection or Flathub itself.

Regards,
Adrien
