when try to start: com.github.phase1geo.minder %f

got this errors:

free(): invalid pointer, Aborted (memory dump written)

How to fix this ?

You are going to need to install version 1.12.2 if there is a pacman package available. Otherwise, you may need to build and install from source.

It doesn't work.

$ flatpak info com.github.phase1geo.minder

Same here on Fedora 33 with the Flatpak release. This only occured after trying to import a .minder export from Outliner, before it was starting fine.

$ flatpak run com.github.phase1geo.minder  
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/yala/.var/app/com.github.phase1geo.minder/data/minder/favorites.xml"
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/yala/.var/app/com.github.phase1geo.minder/data/minder/exports.xml"

$ flatpak run com.github.phase1geo.minder --version
1.12.2

I'd suggest to remove the ARCH label from this issue's title, since this error does not seem to be platform dependant.

Please note this is also avoided with the downgrade to 1.12.1 as described in https://github.com/phase1geo/Minder/issues/357#issuecomment-841128437 despite it still errors with the same missing external entities, but not the invalid pointer anymore. The issue also mentions a regression after a certain commit https://github.com/phase1geo/Minder/issues/357#issuecomment-843124820.
