From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What language do you have set on your system and what terminal are you using?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

English and Konsole. I've installed many Flatpaks in the past, but this is the first time I've encountered this issue.

~~Try to change it to English.~~

Oh then it can be a broken update.
