Not sure why this bug has been marked as "no longer affects Ubuntu
Bionic", it was only fixed in Focal and Groovy, I believe Bionic could
still have the bug.

Awesome, thanks !
I have run the flatpak test plan on a Focal VM, which passed all tests
successfully - I have noted the version of flatpak used below.
Autopkgtest's are also passing. I have also used the test case for this
bug to ensure the environment variables are set correctly in a Wayland

@smcv Thanks for the info ! I'm going to look at backporting that change

This is believed to be fixed by version 1.8.1-1, which converts the gdm
env.d fragment into an example file (moving it from usr/share/gdm/env.d
to usr/share/doc/flatpak/examples/etc/gdm3/env.d). If Ubuntu developers
want to backport that change to 20.04, please see commit b634ea2a in the
Debian
I've just run into this on 20.04 also. Installing flatpak broke all the
snaps in my Wayland session because of the way flatpak overwrites the
XDG_DATA_DIRS envar. It doesn't break snaps in xorg sessions.
Removing flatpak to try to make Wayland sessions usable again breaks
gnome-session on both
this is still happening on ubuntu 20.04

Confirming this bug. More distressingly, after removing flatpak from my
system with apt, this change persisted; it left
/etc/profile.d/flatpak.sh on my system which would automatically run on
my main user, since it still had some leftover files in
.local/share/flatpak, and would crash the desktop
Thanks for investigating further, yes [0] seems to be the issue
upstream. I'll keep an eye on the pull request/issue and hopefully it
will land into a release that can be SRU'd :-)

Should've mentioned that this happens when using GNOME session under
Wayland.
Initially I found (IIRC on another Ubuntu bug) that snaps would not have
icons showing in GNOME, and traced it back to XDG_DATA_DIRS not being
correctly set for Wayland since there's no shell parsing .profile,
.bashrc
I also wonder if /etc/profile.d/ are having an affect, as in there I
have flatpak.sh and xdg_dirs_desktop_session.sh. [4] mentions how the
order of loading these was incorrect at one point in time for Debian and
GNOME systems (but this was for PATH which is more of a special case).
Also I'm not
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.
The .config/environment.d docs [0] and some info around gdm/env.d [1] don't
seem to be too clear which order they would be loaded. But I would expect that
the system gdm is loaded first then the local user one.
