I get the following 2 errors as of this week in Linux Mint 19, 64bit, 2GB swap file with 16 GB of RAM.

That is an unusual error. I wonder whether this is not a normal file. Could you try this command for troubleshooting and paste the results?

sudo stat /root/.cache/doc

While you're there, it would be interesting to see whether a normal delete works

sudo rm  /root/.cache/doc

Thanks for the reply. Here are the results. /doc was a folder, not a file so I modified the command. After deleting the folder, BB works fine.

The issue was because Flatpak created a mount point in ~/.cache . There is information about how to get the fix from Git in this comment
