Any way to restore or fast reinstall an installed flatpak?

[Alexander Larsson]

By the way, when you do something like this, make sure you replace the
file you're editing, rather than edit it in place, because the files
in ~/.local/share/flatpak/runtime/... are hardlinked to the ostree
repo, so an in-place change will break the ostree repo.

Most tools like e.g. editors do this, but some might not.
