This might be a real stupid question but why is discover updating to a lower version? Is there any place I can read up why this is the case?

P.S.: Yes, I could have absolutely google this but lemmy is about more than just shitposts and memes imo. Asking some rather noobish questions will make us appear on google btw.

    It is called “downgrading”, and it is not uncommon to have some packages downgrading when updating/upgrading a system, due to several reasons.

      Under what circumstances? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a package downgraded during an upgrade.

      No. This is just a thing Discover does. Unless nearly every single update I’ve done for every Flatpak I have installed on my Steam Deck have actually been downgrades.

        No, it’s just a (long fixed!) bug. In the case of the Deck, the next version of SteamOS comes with the fix soon… in the case of Debian, they don’t ship our bugfix releases, so it’ll be stuck with this until Debian 13 :/
