Re: Octave 6.1.0 Flatpak do not start

I have also installed 6.2 on Ubuntu 20.10 and it is working. The
file /app/libexec/octave/6.2.0/exec/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/octave-gui is the
correct exe file and is in my Octave sandbox and is found.  I do not have
flatseal installed.  I have no idea what the problem is.  There is some
debug information on the flathub website that you might find useful.

I have copied this email to Octave help as someone else may have
encountered a similar problem.  It is always better to include octave help
in these emails

Take care
