Latest flatpak (Update libde265 to 1.0.15 (7e0f2934)) seems broken – how to fix



Hi everyone,

Yesterday I installed 21.0-Omega on an Ubuntu 24.04 LTS as the Ubuntu repo version was unusable (due to Python library issues I suspect). This commit (1121f35831a650c21f833dfa79d2544e9770ebb222be032cab858aa32f9cf95d) was as stable as a rock, no issues whatsoever.

Today I upgraded to 9464e3dbf2fa9810f1f285e5bc24246a230a10ef4e1224273988b08dcbdc29e4 and Kodi fails to load with the following error:

/app/lib/kodi/kodi.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libbluray.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have fixed this by rolling back to the previous release by performing the following command as root:

flatpak update –commit=1121f35831a650c21f833dfa79d2544e9770ebb222be032cab858aa32f9cf95d tv.kodi.Kodi

Hope this helps get folks up and runnig again if they encounter this issue.
