Hi everyone. tl;dr; Should xdg-desktop-portal-kde provide xdg-deskop-portal-backend?
A bug was reported against Ubuntu [0] from a KDE user, they tried to install flatpak on their machine. But when installing xdg-desktop- portal-gtk is installed rather than xdg-desktop-portal-kde - even if you specify xdg-desktop-portal-kde. >From my understanding of xdg-desktop-portal, one only needs a single backend installed - either the -gtk or -kde - depending which desktop environment they want the portals to feel integrated into. Assuming my understanding is correct, flatpak has a recommends line of "xdg-desktop-portal-gtk | xdg-desktop-portal-backend," [1]. So it appears that xdg-desktop-portal-kde should "provide" xdg-desktop- portal-backend ? xdg-desktop-portal-gtk already does this [2] but I cannot see this for -kde [3]. Would this then allow the user to install flatpak with xdg-desktop-portal-kde and without installing -gtk ?
