@github2452 Is your home folder marked read-only for flatpaks? Can you try giving that permission to flatpaks? As a workaround, please use the native package https://github.com/slgobinath/SafeEyes?tab=readme-ov-file#fedora.
@otuva Any ideas about this?
I'm on the same distro as well. Never experienced anything like this.
Also, I'm trying every flatpak update manually with different distros, no problem so far.
If I had to guess, I would look on the manual changes to the flatpak permissions. Because SafeEyes Flatpak package doesn't have any directory permissions by default.
Maybe deleting $HOME/.var/app/io.github.slgobinath.SafeEyes and $HOME/.local/share/icons directories could help

I'm closing the issue since deleting the icons directory helped
@github2452 Can you confirm if safeeyes recreated the $HOME/.local/share/icons directory?

yes, I can confirm it
If the flatpak does not run due to existing .local/share/icons, that us indeed a problem. Can someone else using flatpak reproduce this?
