Public bug reported: What happened 1) Open your browser, navigate to flathub.org, find an app and click to install it 2) Open the resulting flatpakref in gnome-software. 3) Notice how the app info is correctly displayed 4) Try to click install, notice how now you get "cannot install source from https://dl.flathub.org/repo/: flatpak source flathub already exists"
Note that I have 3.27.92 installed first and then upgraded to 3.28. After removing all installed apps and remotes I have not been able to reproduce the issue. It has been suggested that it is an issue in cache cleanup between versions - probably within ~/.cache/gnome- software/flatpak/ Furthermore note the actual issue was likely fixed in 3.28, so this is upgrades from lower than 3.28 to 3.28 which will be affected by cache upgrade issues.
