Hamster installed from flatpak won't start from Desktop link

[rabin-io]

When starting Hamster from the application menu, I get this error message,

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/app/lib/python3.10/site-packages/dbus/service.py", line 662, in _message_cb
(candidate_method, parent_method) = _method_lookup(self, method_name, interface_name)
File "/app/lib/python3.10/site-packages/dbus/service.py", line 252, in _method_lookup

dbus.exceptions.UnknownMethodException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Unknown method: Activate is not a valid method of interface org.freedesktop.Application 

Not sure, but this might be related to issue #692

@rabin-io Could you check if activation works when you use the upstream flatpak version instead of the flathub version (if you are not doing this already)? If so, it seems likely that you are indeed seeing #692 and this can be closed as duplicate.

Here's a recent (git master) flatpak build to try (I don't think we have builds of releases yet), scroll down to the bottom: https://github.com/projecthamster/hamster/actions/runs/6891207526

Yep, working.

Thanks, then I'm going to close this as a duplicate of #692 for now.
