[Bug 2097033] [NEW] Installing some Flatpaks returns error 256

[Alexander Sanderson]

Public bug reported:

When installing certain Flatpaks such as Parsec
(https://flathub.org/apps/com.parsecgaming.parsec) through Discover, the
installation fails with the message: Aborted due to failure (While
trying to apply extra data: apply_extra script failed, exit status 256).
However, if I run flatpak install parsec through the terminal, this
doesn't happen and the installation commences normally. I suspect it is
something to do with the flatpak discover backend for this reason.

Note: In my configuration, Flathub is installed as a user installation
rather than system level. This could potentially have an effect on this
issue.
