It downloads every driver again according https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3750 So it seems to be an upstream issue. The actual driver is your number 8. Did you already try "flatpak uninstall --unused"?
And additional https://github.com/flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia/issues/42
Thanks for the tip. I added chapter https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Flatpak#Cleaning Actually it is not only old nvidia drivers that keep lying around, apparently, see below. So I believe it is by design. Anyway nothing Mageia can do, but to note it in our wiki. (Please reopen if you think removals can and should be automated) On my system I had: $ flatpak list Namn Program-ID Version Gren Origin Installation ...
