Research direction
Start by reproducing flatpak run org.libretro.RetroArch on the reported Debian stock installation and capture the Flatpak, Mesa, and EGL output. The issue names no source files or tests; done means determining the cause of the ZINK and EGL errors and confirming that the Flatpak launches without them.
