Leap 15.5 KDE (wayland)
Fresh install yesterday (net-install, for testing only, fully patched/updated, standard repos - no Packman etc., basic settings/no changes applied). Same observed on 5 local machines (in production/various HW and with different settings applied).
Attempts to reset or restrict permissions via KDE (System Settings-> Programs → Flatpak Permission Settings) or Flatseal or command-line (user and/or global) not working. Delete, erase and re-install Flatpak not working.
Testet with several Flatpak apps - same result.
Some of the denied permissions ignored (apps still have full /home access and are running in the background):
- running in the background
- file system access
Denied setting that actually does work:
- Internet Connection
user2@a001:~> flatpak permissions
Table Object App Permissions Data

SUDO not working on this machine (new problem today), but had no affect on test machine:
user2@a001:~> sudo flatpak permission-reset --all
user2@a001:~> error: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY
user2@a001:~> sudo flatpak permissions
user2@a001:~> error: Cannot autolaunch D-Bus without X11 $DISPLAY
No Flatpak related errors in journal, but a couple of (unrelated ?) warnings:
- Unable to start p11-kit server: Sub-process closed with code 2
- file:///usr/share/kpackage/kcms/kcm_flatpak/contents/ui/permissions.qml:243:21: Unable to assign FlatpakPolicy to QString
How to rectify/nail down the culprit ?
