How to reproduce

1. Do a search of an app with flatpak CLI

Expected Behavior

Get results

Actual Behavior

I'm getting the same message multiple times before the results

(flatpak search:15526): GLib-CRITICAL **: 09:26:26.963: g_once_init_leave: assertion 'g_atomic_pointer_get (value_location) == 0' failed

Additional Information

Already tried with:

• sudo flatpak repair and reinstalling
• Removing /var/lib/flatpak and reinstalling

This is ximion/appstream#384 and should be fixed by the next libappstream release (I already sent a patch to fix it, which was merged).

Bugs in Flatpak's dependencies will not be fixed by a Flatpak change, so I'm closing this as not actionable for Flatpak.

Note that 1.13.x is a development prerelease for early adopters, and is not the current stable release (that's 1.12.6).

AppStream version: 0.15.2 , still does not have this merged , hopefully the next version will resolve the error .
@alosarjos I am running Fedora Silverblue rawhide , I too get the error with Flatpak version: 1.13.2 , so appstream has to be updated first and then this error will be resolved

have the same on Ubuntu, flatpak 1.14.0-2flatpak1~22.04.1

[smcv]

have the same on Ubuntu

This is a libappstream bug, not a Flatpak bug, so you will continue to get this until Ubuntu 22.04's libappstream is updated or gets a backport of the fix. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream/+bug/2006110
