HI All
I switched Evolution from Ubuntu to flatpak source, but when I try start flatpk evolution I get the following error, ‘error: opendir(/): Permission denied’.
2 questions ; why is Evo trying to open the root directory,
How do I get more debug information
Thanks

Hi,
I’m afraid it’s something with the Flatpak, not with the Evolution as
such. Evolution does not read the root directory.
I suppose you installed the Flatpak version of the Evolution from
the flathub.org , that version is verified by many users. Does any
other app from there suffer of a similar problem, please? I would try
something smaller, for example:
flatpak install flathub org.gnome.Calendar
flatpak run org.gnome.Calendar
The man flatpak
suggests to use -vv
to get more verbose debugging
from it, thus:
flatpak -vv run org.gnome.Evolution
may or may not help, it depends where precisely the error comes from.
Bye,
Milan
