this happens on debian 13.1 xfce
after installing io.github.Hexchat I get this message on the terminal:
Info: runtime org.freedesktop.Platform branch 23.08 is end-of-life, with reason: org.freedesktop.Platform 23.08 is no longer receiving fixes and security updates. Please update to a supported runtime version. Info: applications using this runtime: io.github.Hexchat
the message applies to the following runtimes as well:
org.freedesktop.Platform.VAAPI.Intel branch 23.08
org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default branch 23.08-extra
org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default
if I remove them manually and I update flatpak, it asks me to install them again
My computer uses both system and user remotes.
Because my .var directory is almost full, I installed hexchat as user, but the drivers are systemwide. I don’t know if this is relevant.
the info line contains the answer:
You need to remove Hexchat if you want to remove the end-of-life runtimes it requires.
I regret to inform you that the maintainer wrote in February 2024: This will be the last release I make of HexChat. The project has largely been unmaintained for years now and nobody else stepped up to do that work.
If you’re low on disk space you probably want to have everything installed as either user or system, to avoid having some runtimes installed in both.
