--- Comment #66 from corrigo <[email protected]> ---
I have another case that may be relevant to this issue.

I'm running Fedora KDE 44 with:

* KDE Plasma 6.7.0
* Discover 6.7.0 (plasma-discover-6.7.0-1.fc44.x86_64)
* Flatpak
* Wayland

My Flatpak remotes are configured as follows:

* Flathub: system
* Dolphin Emulator official remote: user

The Dolphin remote was added using the command recommended by the Dolphin
project:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists --user dolphin
https://flatpak.dolphin-emu.org/releases.flatpakrepo

REPRODUCTION

This happened twice with Dolphin Emulator.

First, Discover detected an update from version 2603a to 2606, but clicking
"Update All" did not update Dolphin. Other updates were installed successfully.

Running "flatpak update --user" afterwards updated Dolphin successfully.

Today (2026-08-11), the same issue happened again with the update from 2606 to
2606a.

Discover shows:

Dolphin Emulator
2606 → 2606a

and also:

org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu.Locale

However, clicking "Update All" does not update Dolphin, while other available
updates are installed successfully.

FLATPAK STATE

flatpak list --user --columns=ref,application,version,origin:

org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu/x86_64/stable    org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu    2606 
  dolphin

flatpak info --user org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu confirms:

ID: org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu
Ref: app/org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu/x86_64/stable
Version: 2606
Origin: dolphin
Installation: user
Runtime: org.kde.Platform/x86_64/6.10

The update is correctly detected by Flatpak.

"flatpak update --user" offers:

org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu.Locale
org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu

The remote contains version 2606a, with commit:

031d2c55da75e1d10a0b2991a02f06c6108b32aded8c38c7d5041e6ecfe4ebe3

Date: 2026-08-11 03:47:47 UTC

DISCOVER LOG

When running Discover from a terminal with "plasma-discover", the following
error is repeatedly reported:

org.kde.plasma.libdiscover.backend.flatpak: Failed to get parent ref
"org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu" for subref "org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu.Locale"

followed by:

AppError: Ref app/org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu/x86_64/stable not installed

and:

RuntimeError: Ref runtime/org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu/x86_64/stable not
installed

The actual installed application ref is:

app/org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu/x86_64/stable

So Discover appears to be trying to resolve the Locale subref against
org.DolphinEmu.dolphin_emu, while the installed application is
org.DolphinEmu.dolphin-emu.

The same error is also reported when starting Discover with:

plasma-discover --backends flatpak-backend

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

Discover should be able to update the Dolphin Flatpak from 2606 to 2606a, just
as the Flatpak CLI does.

WORKAROUND

Running:

flatpak update --user

successfully updates Dolphin.

I have not yet used the CLI update for the current 2606 → 2606a update, in
order to preserve the failing state for investigation.

This has now happened twice with consecutive Dolphin releases, so the issue
appears reproducible with this Flatpak application.
