From issue #233, here are some problems I ran into while installing the dev flatpak (mentioned in this blog post) on a Centos 8 machine where that machine's flatpaks were all installed system-wide (without --user):

$ su -c "flatpak install gtg-git-2020-06-15.flatpak"
Mot de passe : 
Installing in system:
org.gnome.GTGDevel/x86_64/master org.gnome.GTGDevel-origin ec220a51eb0c
  permissions: ipc, network, fallback-x11, wayland, x11
  dbus ownership: org.gnome.GTGDevel
  system dbus access: org.freedesktop.login1
  tags: devel, development, nightly
Is this ok [y/n]: y
Installing: org.gnome.GTGDevel/x86_64/master from bundle gtg-git-2020-06-15.flatpak
Now at ec220a51eb0c.

$ flatpak run org.gnome.GTGDevel

Nevermind, it was the system being FUBAR due to flatpak/flatpak#1496 ; the silly hack in flatpak/flatpak#1496 (comment) made it work.
