flathubbot going in circles with 0.0.68?

[mvdan]

It keeps doing dummy updates from 0.0.68 to 0.0.68, going back and forth between two URLs which presumably lead to the same release archive: https://github.com/flathub/com.discordapp.Discord/pulls?q=is%3Apr+0.0.68

As a workaround, users annoyed by these frequent updates have the option to mask out all Discord updates with the following command:

flatpak mask com.discordapp.Discord

Once this issue is resolved, you can unmask Discord with:

flatpak mask --remove com.discordapp.Discord

I think the best option right now is to disable Flathub's update-checker. However, my impression is that this package is barely maintained (even though it's "official"), so future client updates might get delayed if we go that route.

Please note that even though this issue is closed, the underlying issue still exists.

For now though, all Discord updates will be pushed manually by me (but still checked automatically with nvchecker [1] [2], for faster updates).
