While I was trying to install Geary from the Software center I noticed that it was available from the repos as an RPM but also as a flatpak from fedora or flathub. I decided to install it from the fedora flatpak repostiory to check howw that works.
While doing some post installation checks I hit the following flatpak error:
$ flatpak remote-info fedora org.gnome.Geary
error: Unsupported URI scheme “oci+https”
I was wondering if I was doing something wrong but I think I wasn’t. I used the command correctly as can be seen by the two commands below:
$ flatpak remotes
Name Options
fedora system,oci
flathub system
$ flatpak remote-info flathub org.gnome.Fractal

Anyone has any idea why I cannot query the fedora remote repository?
