Bug ID: 517860
Summary: Adding extra flatpak location doesn't display the
Displayname value but flathub appears twice
Classification: Applications
Product: Discover
Version First 6.6.2
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I added a new location to install flatpaks and through Discover I see
"From:Flathub" appear twice as installation options. One points to the
custom-installation and the other the system however there is no way to know
which is which.
In /etc/flatpak/installations.d I created games.conf which has this
[Installation "games"]
Path=/mnt/linux_data/Games/flatpak
DisplayName=Game Installations
StorageType=harddisk
Then I executed :
sudo flatpak --installation=games remote-add games
``https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
and finally :
sudo flatpak --installation=games install games info.beyondallreason.bar
The installation went well and in the right folder however I noticed this from
“Discover”
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In /etc/flatpak/installations.d I created games.conf containing the
following
[Installation "extra"]
Path=/mnt/linux_data/flatpaks
DisplayName=Extra Installations
StorageType=harddisk
2. sudo flatpak --installation=games remote-add extra
``https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
3. I then open Discover and I see this two from options, Flathub and Flathub,
one pointing to the new mount point and the other to the default (the system).
There is no way to know which is which until we try to install.
OBSERVED RESULT
Adding custom installation location for flatpaks results in showing
FROM:Flathub twice.
EXPECTED RESULT
There should be more details to let us know which destination we are selecting,
perhaps one stating the system and the other whatever value is in DisplayName
in the configuration file.
