Research direction

Start with the Flatpak manifest and run flatpak-builder-lint manifest to confirm the runtime version offered at submission time. Check whether GTK 3, libsecret, and libayatana-appindicator are available in that runtime, then retest the window, theming, file chooser, secrets, SSH tunnels, and MCP server. Done means the manifest uses the latest available GNOME runtime and the listed checks pass.

Description

enhancement flathub

Part of #1060. Reviewer: "It's not the latest runtime." Linter: runtime-is-eol-org.gnome.Platform-48 (error), runtime-update-available-to-org.gnome.Platform-51 (warning).

Rules: the runtime "must be the latest version at that time of submission"; "Submissions using an end-of-life runtime ... will not be accepted."

Work

  • Switch runtime-version to the latest GNOME runtime offered by the linter at submission time
  • Check GTK 3 / libsecret / libayatana-appindicator (if used) availability in that runtime
  • Re-test: window, theming, file chooser, secrets, SSH tunnels, MCP server
  • Re-run flatpak-builder-lint manifest
