Open CPN 5.8.0 and plugins not showing up

[J.Hernandez]

I have updated OpenCPN to 5.8.0 via Flatpak. I have waited for the plugins to be updated but so far even after clicking on updating them every day I only see some pluggins. I am missing several like Weather Routing in particular. Am I missing something? Do I need to import the old plugin from somewhere? Would it work? How do I do this?

See attached screenshot from a flatpak installation of OpenCPN, weather routing plugin is there, at the very end of the alphabetically ordered list (you need to scroll down through the whole list). If it is not there for you, we need to know more about your system.
And 5.8.2 has already been released, you should probably update to get the latest bugfixes.

I have scrolled down and Weather Routing is not there. Others are missing like Polar Generator.

I went ahead and updated to OpenCPN 5.8.2.

Reviewed the plugins list and they are still missing. Updated the plugin list to 2023-05-11 02:55. Still missing after I received the message that Catalog Update was successful.

This is afresh install of the entire OPENPLOTTER from Flatpak. Not sure what else I am missing. Any help would be appreciated.

The weather routing plugin ARM64 flatpak was not yet released, you have to wait until it is. Same for all the others that were not yet released, like polar.

Thank you! That makes sense. Is there an ETA?

I went from 5.6.2 to 5.8.2.. NV Charts plugin not accepted by vs 5.8.2 But a new plugin is not listed. Is there some help? Would be nice.

Same problem: in the downloads in OCPN it is indicated to use the build-in plugin manager to download NV charts plugin. However this plugin is not in the list of the plugin manager.
