Description

The app was working before version 33. Now it won't start after first run and is stuck in an "already started" loop.
~~~
flatpak run com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud
nextcloud.gui.application: Migrating old config from "/var/home/#####/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud/data/Nextcloud" to "/var/home/#####/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud/config/Nextcloud"
nextcloud.gui.application: Failed to move the old config directory to its new location ( "/var/home/#####/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud/data/Nextcloud" to "/var/home/#####/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud/config/Nextcloud" )
nextcloud.gui.application: Will move the individual files QList()
nextcloud.gui.application: Already running, exiting...
kdsingleapplication.localsocket: Connection timed out
~~~

I've tried removing the lock but after reboot, logout, app restart it says it's already running but it is not running. Not able to access new files added to Nextcloud since the sync isn't working because the app isn't really running.
~~~
pkill -9 nextcloud
sleep 1
find /var/home/#####/.var/app/com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud -name ".lock" -o -name "*.lock" -o -name "*socket*" | xargs rm -f 2>/dev/null
~~~

Found workaround by using previous commit and masking to prevent updates to broken version:
~~~
sudo flatpak update --commit=5e140c5734b51abce5951e76c1684c15fde19656e40ecf49ad7b27b3ccc9badf com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud

flatpak mask com.nextcloud.desktopclient.nextcloud
~~~
