Ultimaker Cura 5.5 Flatpak Launching in the background on ElementaryOS
If you’re having an issue with Ultimaker Cura 5.5 Flatpak launching in the background and you’re unable to bring it to the foreground, I found that rolling it back to Cura 5.4 fixed the issue. To do so you’ll need to follow the directions I found at StackExchange.
- First you need to run
flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.ultimaker.cura
. This pulls up information that we’ll need later. - You’ll want to look for the commit
ac4bdf52bd8ed4d1da279e4025693e41e89dec16441b2821b792cb0452ef37b2
- Run
flatpak update --commit=ac4bdf52bd8ed4d1da279e4025693e41e89dec16441b2821b792cb0452ef37b2 com.ultimaker.cura
to rollback to Cura 5.4.0 - Once Complete, run
flatpak mask com.ultimaker.cura
to stop it from updating automagically- NOTE: You’ll need to run
flatpak mask --remove com.ultimaker.cura
to re-enable updating
- NOTE: You’ll need to run
That’s it! Good luck!
