There is no runtime hook to do this. As I wrote in my other reply, at sandbox startup all of /app/
lib is mounted read-only. There is no way a command run later in that sandbox can make any 
change at all to /app/lib.

The only way to fix it is before the flatpak starts. I have filed an issue upstream with flatpak 
itself, but so far there has been no answer
