            Bug ID: 399331
           Summary: Kontact/flatpak installation fails
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Flatpak
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: akregator
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kde at mobildata.de
  Target Milestone: ---

The installation of an always up to date Kontact should be available now as a
flatpak. THANKS FOR THIS (and looking forward to maybe also find a snap version
soon?).
However, installation does not really work by now. In the following you will
see that a first installation attempt failed because of a serve side error (Bad
Gateway) and only some of the necessary flatpak parts became installed. But in
a second attempt, when the server answered correctly and the missing flatpak
part should have been installed, it failed with a KDE Kontact flatpak package
related error message. In a third attempt, another odd error message was
thrown, before in a fourth attempt the second (KDE KOntact related) error was
on again. I have had ti give up after a 5th try, which throwed another odd
error message. Hope this feedback helps to get the flatpak offer polished:
