Ever since November I can’t launch Bazaar anymore. My current version is:
I suspect this is because of the change over to flatpak but I’m not sure.
Let me know if there are other diagnostics I should share, I’m a little new to troubleshooting this sort of thing

how are you trying to launch it?
does it launch from terminal with flatpak run io.github.kolunmi.Bazaar
Oh! That works! How strange!
I was launching through KRunner or else the application dashboard.
Also I noticed: In KRunner I only get the usual “Install with Bazaar” recommendations when I have bazaar open using the method you suggested for launching it. After I close the window I don’t get “Install with Bazaar” recommendations anymore
Could it be that you have a local, i.e. in ~/.local/share/applications/ Bazaar desktop file which points to an earlier RPM-installed Bazaar ?

There is indeed!
It’s called io.github.kolunmi.Bazaar.desktop
Should I simply delete this?
Its content is:

Exec=bazaar window --auto-service %U

That is the old rpm version.
Ok! So all it took to fix the error was that I had to delete the file
~/.local/share/applications/io.github.kolunmi.Bazaar.desktop
Thanks for everyone’s help!
