Thanks, for the record, I previously discussed this issue with upstream
and about them including such a change in a point release. But they
didn't want to commit to making and supporting major changes to the old
flatpak plugin (from gnome-software 3.30 the plugin was rewritten and
the issue doesn't occur). I personally don't have any knowledge of the
gnome-software code base, so would not feel confident in fixing the code
and ensuring it doesn't break anything else.

As stated before, if anyone with knowledge is able to either get a merge
approved by upstream for the 3.28 series or has enough knowledge of the
code base to be confident in their changes, I would be happy in helping
with the SRU verification part of the process.

Title:
  Flatpak related refs are not installed when using GNOME Software on
  Ubuntu 18.04

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Bionic:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  When installing a Flatpak application that depends on some runtimes
  and they depend on some additional runtime extensions (related refs)
  using GNOME Software on Ubuntu 18.04, the runtime extensions are not
  installed. They are installed if you run "flatpak update" from
  Terminal after the installation. This issue should be already fixed in
  GNOME Software upstream so I believe that this is a downstream Ubuntu
  issue. Please, fix this.

  Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Use the latest, fully updated Ubuntu 18.04 image.
  2. Install "flatpak" and "gnome-software-plugin-flatpak" packages.
  3. Restart the system.
  4. Download and add the Flathub repo file: 
https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
  5. Search and install the "GNOME Web" Flatpak package using GNOME Software.
  6. Run the installed "Web" application.

  Actual results:
  GNOME Web is started with the default (Adwaita) theme (and without the 
correct locale if you use non-English system).

  Expected results:
  GNOME Web is started with the correct (Ubuntu) theme (and with the correct 
locale if you use non-English system).
