Conflicts with Filen linux app on install

[tech42676]

Description

Hello, when I install the latest appimage or RPM on Fedora 40, (ente-1.7.6-x86_64.rpm), I get this error that it conflicts with the filen.io desktop app. I rolled back to 1.7.5 with no issues.

Version

1.7.6

What product are you using?

Ente Photos

What platform are you using?

Desktop - Linux

I'm assuming that filen is also an Electron app, so likely what's happening here is that both Ente and filen are using the same Electron version, and are trying to write the exact same chrome-sandbox binary during install.

@mnvr Thanks for the response. Maybe I'll try another way to install either one with an appimage, though that didn't work. The post you provided had them install via flatpak, but I don't think filen or ente photos are on there. Thanks again.

I think meanwhile a force install in this case should be fine too (Untested and do it at your own risk, I'm just mentioning to help in case you can't get the other methods working). Both the apps are just sharing the chrome-sandbox binary so it shouldn't matter if it gets overwritten with the exact same one.
