Can't run any project: "bwrap: can't make symlink at /var/run: File exists"
Linux distribution and version
Archlinux, Builder v3.36.0, 3.34, 3.32
Flatpak version
1.6.2
Description of the problem
When I try to run to run any project in Builder I do get after correctly building the app
Application started at 04:59:29 AM
bwrap: Can't make symlink at /var/run: File exists
Application exited
It happened through 3.34 branch and even on 3.32 but at the time it went away with
systemctl start --user xdg-desktop-portal
Steps to reproduce
- Create a new GNOME application in GNOME Builder (any language)
- Click on run
Maybe something is wrong in my /var
. Do you know where should I look?
