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 xorg and Wayland. It crashes on login with this
error:
Jul 07 02:48:51 serenity gnome-session[3205]: gnome-session-binary[3205]:
GLib-GIO-ERROR: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system
Jul 07 02:48:51 serenity gnome-session[3205]: aborting...
Jul 07 02:48:51 serenity gnome-session-binary[3205]: GLib-GIO-ERROR: No
GSettings schemas are installed on the system
aborting...
I've tried various things to try to get flatpak off the system, but no
luck. Wayland is still broken.
The upstream bugs here are all closed, but the bugfixes aren't effective
on Wayland sessions, and the uninstall problems appear to be new.
