flatpak Developer Alexander Larsson alexl@redhat.com flatpak mask 1 flatpak-mask Mask out updates and automatic installation flatpak mask OPTION PATTERN Flatpak maintains a list of patterns that define which refs are masked. A masked ref will never be updated or automatically installed (for example a masked extension marked auto-download will not be downloaded). You can still manually install such refs, but once they are installed the version will be pinned. The patterns are just a partial ref, with the * character matching anything within that part of the ref. Here are some example patterns: org.some.App org.some.App//unstable app/org.domain.* org.some.App/arm To list the current set of masks, run this command without any patterns. The following options are understood: -h --help Show help options and exit. --remove Instead of adding the patterns, remove matching patterns. -u --user Mask refs in a per-user installation. --system Mask refs in the default system-wide installation. --installation=NAME Mask refs in a system-wide installation specified by NAME among those defined in /etc/flatpak/installations.d/. Using --installation=default is equivalent to using --system. -v --verbose Print debug information during command processing. $ flatpak mask $ flatpak mask org.broken.App $ flatpak mask --remove org.broken.App flatpak1, flatpak-update1,
