Linux distribution and version

Debian sid

Flatpak version

Flatpak 1.0.6

Description of the problem

When I install a flatpak and pass --reinstall it still errors out and says that the version is already installed.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a bundle with flatpak build-bundle
  2. Run flatpak install --reinstall some.flatpak two times

Example:

flatpak install --reinstall build/io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet.flatpak 
Installing in system:
io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet/x86_64/master io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet-origin 710bbdb1fa56
  permissions: ipc, network, pulseaudio, wayland, x11
  file access: /tmp, host, xdg-config/gtk-3.0:ro, xdg-run/dconf, ~/.config/dconf:ro
  dbus access: ca.desrt.dconf, com.canonical.Unity.Launcher, org.enlightenment.wm.service, org.freedesktop.Avahi, org.freedesktop.FileManager1, org.freedesktop.Notifications, org.freedesktop.Telepathy.AccountManager, org.gajim.dbus, org.gnome.ScreenSaver, org.gnome.SessionManager, org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.MediaKeys, org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher, org.kde.plasmashell, org.mate.SettingsDaemon, org.xfce.FileManager
  dbus ownership: org.gnome.UPnP.MediaServer2.QuodLibet, org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.quodlibet, org.mpris.quodlibet
Is this ok [y/n]: y
Installing: io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet/x86_64/master from bundle io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet.flatpak
error: Failed to install bundle io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet/x86_64/master: This version of io.github.quodlibet.QuodLibet is already installed

Looks like reinstall is simply not wired up for bundle installs.

I can confirm this, it makes installing for debug on a dev machine rather impractical.

E.g.:

[0/1] Installing the flatpak archive for eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv, and running gdb on it

eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv permissions:
    fallback-x11    pulseaudio    wayland    x11    dri    file access [1]   dbus access [2]

    [1] home, xdg-run/dconf, ~/.config/dconf:ro
    [2] ca.desrt.dconf


        ID                                     Arch             Branch           Remote                Download
 1. [✗] eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv            x86_64           master           gadv-origin           < 0 bytes

Error: eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv already installed
error: Failed to install bundle eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv: This version of eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv is already installed
FAILED: CMakeFiles/flatpak-debug 
cd /home/matteo/Projects/builds/gadv/debug && /usr/bin/flatpak install --user --reinstall -y gadv.flatpak && /usr/bin/flatpak run --user "--command=gdb /app/bin/gadv" --devel eu.montecristosoftware.GAdv
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
