ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am developing an app based on Qt5 (borrowing some functionality from KDE Tier
1 frameworks - thanks a lot for these ;-)) which I, among other target
channels, also release as Flatpak (which is build using the KDE flatpak runtime
as a base - also a big thanks for this one).
In this app I use the QtRemoteObjects module: It is a cross platform approach
for IPC. In that regard, somehow similar to Dbus. Currenlty, QtRemoteObjects
does not seem to be part of the KDE flatpak runtime. I managed to install it
manually during the build of my app, but that feels kind of hacky. I guess,
this would be easier with future Qt versions (aka Qt 6) as then cmake is used
for building Qt which makes building and installing Qt "core" libraries into
non-Qt/system locations in such a scenario easier.
I still wonder, if QtRemoteObjects could be added to the KDE flatpak runtime?
I have no idea how heavily this part of Qt is used and if it is worth adding
it, but personally, I found it really convenient, as it allows easy IPC in a
really cross-platform way (i.e. also on Android).
Thanks for considering!
