Battle.Net claiming an update is available, but cannot update under Lutris? (lemmy.ml)

Currently running Battle.Net version 2.21.2.14215 with Battle.Net update agent version 2.30.7.8279, and Battle.Net keeps claiming an update is available, however when I select 'Update now' Battle.Net just closes. If I stop Battle.Net from within Lutris and reopen it, after a while Battle.Net notifies me that there's still an update available. I even tried selecting 'Install another version' under Lutris, which downloaded and installed a new Battle.Net instance, and I still have Battle.Net telling me there's an update available.

Anyone else encounter this? Does anyone know of a fix?

Someone on the Steam Deck reddit did a PSA on this as well. It isn't just Lutris. It's happening no matter how you install Battle.net. I am getting this issue when installing Battle.net straight through Steam as well. Don't continue to attempt to update, this will create a bunch of temporary files in your install directory and some people have said it might even corrupt your prefix. Just wait a bit while it all gets sorted out.
