Updates complete.

Expected Behavior

When installing and updating applications, I don't expect errors.

Actual Behavior

The Nvidia driver and all dependent applications cannot be installed.

Additional Information

No response

If NVIDIA will no longer let you download their driver, then there isn't really anything that Flatpak will be able to do about that. We already have to download the driver directly onto your system (the "extra-data" mechanism), instead of having a copy on Flathub, because NVIDIA's licensing doesn't allow Flathub to re-host a copy.

Please could someone with appropriate privileges move this issue to https://github.com/flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia/issues?

I think transferring issues might only work within an organization?

It's terrible! No one knows what to do and my programs just stopped working 😢

I am dealing with the same problem. So I tried to download "Run file" itself from the url that flatpak gives me using a VPN. This URL. Now, I have "Run file", but I have no idea how to manually install it for flatpak. Is there anyone who can help?

NVIDIA's licensing doesn't allow Flathub to re-host a copy.

Then how is RPMFusion able to host it?

Then how is RPMFusion able to host it?

Either they asked for and got permission from Nvidia (like Debian did), or they're infringing copyright and hoping that Nvidia won't notice or complain.

This is the issue tracker for the Flatpak program/library, not for Flathub or org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia, so asking for permission to redistribute the Nvidia drivers (or any other change to how a specific thing is packaged) is out-of-scope here: the people who could ask for that permission do not monitor this issue tracker, and the people who monitor this issue tracker are not able to change how the Nvidia drivers are packaged. I've forwarded the request to flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia#203.
