Research direction

Start by inspecting the Flathub package configuration for the runtime and windowing-system declarations; the issue provides no file or test name. Confirm the reported warnings and verify that the package no longer uses an end-of-life runtime or legacy windowing system.

Description

Hello,

I get warnings about squirrell sql using unmaintained runtimes when using the flatpak CLI.

The flathub website does indicate the same:

SQuirreL SQL Client is potentially unsafe

Legacy windowing system
Uses a legacy windowing system
Uses an end-of-life runtime
The runtime used by this app is no longer receiving security updates

Thank you for reading :)
