Hi

After I update the SteamOS 3.5.5 , I want to update/install the flatpak packages with flatpak update -y. this command does not worked and I need sudo access for that. Is this become rule of thumb for flatpak packages for this update?

  So, the right command is flatpak update -y --user ?

    Maybe. I usually update my flatpaks through Discover.
    
    Though it looks like the problem is that it can’t write to /tmp. Try using chmod a+wr /tmp and trying to flatpak update -y again
