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.
OPTIONS
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.
EXAMPLES
$ flatpak mask
$ flatpak mask org.broken.App
$ flatpak mask --remove org.broken.App
