Firefox Flatpak instance as a new icon
SUMMARY
Application icon duplicates in panel when launching a Flatpak application while
distribution package equivalent is also installed.
For example, if I have the Firefox flatpak (`org.mozilla.firefox` on Flathub),
and `firefox` from the Arch Linux repositories, the problem occurs.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install an application as a Flatpak (`org,mozilla.firefox` on Flathub for
example) and its distribution package equivalent (`firefox` in Arch
repositories for example)
2. Pin the Firefox Flatpak to task manager
3. Launch the Flatpak application from the task manager
OBSERVED RESULT
Firefox appears separately as an instance, with a duplicate icon.
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma should reuse the Firefox icon from the task manager.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux (VM using GNOME Boxes)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0
Qt Version: 5.15.4
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I assume that Plasma thinks that it is running Firefox from the distribution
repository instead. When I pin the duplicate icon to task manager, close
Firefox and open the newly pinned icon, it launches Firefox from the
distribution repository.
