Skipped VST2 / VST3 when scanning for plugins

Hey there,

I am trying to install multiple windows vsts (through bottles) and I am getting an error of “Skipped” when scanning. Ive attached the error as it says there is an issue with carla.

I’ve tried removing and reinstalling everything, creating a new bottle, and removing the “cached_plugin_descriptors.yaml” and the error logs say:

``(zrythm:49416): zrythm-DEBUG: 17:34:27.920: (cached_plugin_descriptors_get:256): Getting cached descriptors for /home/user/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles>

I’m not sure if I am missing anything, however there isn’t any information helpful to this error in the manual or on the forum currently.

Thanks for the help in advance!

You’re trying to run flatpak binaries from outside flatpak, assuming those are even GNU/Linux binaries. This isn’t supported. Maybe try yabridge instead.
