Subject: Some Flatpak applications fail to start when attempting to run
 xdg-dbus-proxy
Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2020 13:25:55 -0400
I have a few applications that I've installed through Flatpak on Guix 
System which used to work, but recently I've been unable to run them. 
Trying to run them results in:

jfred <at> lambdacrypt ~$ flatpak run im.riot.Riot
bwrap: execvp xdg-dbus-proxy: No such file or directory
jfred <at> lambdacrypt ~$ flatpak run org.signal.Signal
bwrap: execvp xdg-dbus-proxy: No such file or directory

This is my current Guix revision, and I've just run `guix system 
reconfigure` and updated my user packages:

jfred <at> lambdacrypt ~$ guix describe
Generation 25	Jun 03 2020 23:43:30	(current)

I had the same problem. I fixed it with
guix install xdg-dbus-proxy.

Best wishes,
Arne

Oh interesting, you're right! I would've expected this to be a hard 
dependency of flatpak though, if flatpak apps require it.

Thanks for the tip though!
