flatpaks dont launch

hello! i have an issue with flatpaks seemingly not able to launch. they appear to be attempting to link against libs in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
but the libs its looking for are under
/usr/lib64
/usr/lib64
. i tried launching the flatpak with the
--env
--env
option to override
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
but that didnt appear to override it like i thought it would. anyone experienced this?
flatpak run org.mozilla.firefox
/bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libreadline.so.8: file too short
