FLATPAK REPAIR(1)

NAME
flatpak-repair - Repair a flatpak installation

SYNOPSIS

flatpak repair [OPTION...]

DESCRIPTION

Repair a flatpak installation by pruning and reinstalling invalid objects. The repair command does all of the following:

    • Scan all locally available refs, removing any that don't correspond to a deployed ref.

    • Verify each commit they point to, removing any invalid objects and noting any missing objects.

    • Remove any refs that had an invalid object, and any non-partial refs that had missing objects.

    • Prune all objects not referenced by a ref, which gets rid of any possibly invalid non-scanned objects.

    • Enumerate all deployed refs and re-install any that are not in the repo (or are partial for a non-subdir deploy).

Note that flatpak repair has to be run with root privileges to operate on the system installation.

An alternative command for repairing OSTree repositories is ostree fsck.
