Issues with flatpack not working as intended

Support Snap/Flatpak
1

Hey guys, just trying to get steam running on my friends PC. I followed this guide:

The console failed on the last step with this output. Any ideas what this is? I tried googling the error, but I’m still pretty much a noob myself and I’m not sure what the correct answer is.

    ~  sudo flatpak install com.valvesoftware.Steam                                           ✔  10s  
Looking for matches…

Do you want to install it? [Y/n]: Y

Sometimes it happens when local time is incorrect.

sudo timedatectl set-ntp true

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Classic XY Problem: You’re asking about your attempted solution rather than your actual problem .

Please edit your topic title to reflect what you’re actually trying to do. Also be sure to check your spelling.

Sorry, the “tutorial” you followed is a garbage tech blog. There is no reason to install the Flatpak (which may work, however it’s not recommended) when Steam is in the official Manjaro community repository:

sudo pacman -Syu steam
