You mentioned here that all Plex clients have gotten an update.

Even the officially supported Snap got this update.

But the officially supported Flatpak hasn’t gotten an update in 9 months on version 1.112.0 and is using EOL run time.

Can you please update the officially support Flatpak to that version as well and also update the runtime to a support one when.

There have been PR’s for it been no one has taken any action on this.

Also see this topic which was created a year ago where this was asked and no Plex employee responded but one who said he contacted engineering and he couldn’t do more.

I’m pretty sure the security update was for the server not client apps.

They explicitly say to update server and desktop, it says so in the first line of the announcement!

I have been told, that Plex is working on this @Cphusion

Sorry, my mistake.
