Bug ID: 457992
Summary: KDE Connect Flatpak and permissions to directories
Product: kdeconnect
Version: unspecified
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: common
Assignee: albertv...@gmail.com
Reporter: kokotekil...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The Flatpak version doesn't have the expected Filesystem permissions for file
transfers.
No error is present when failing to send or receive files.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install the Flatpak version of KDE connect
2. Attempt to share a file to the device using a different machine
OBSERVED RESULT
Short popup for receiving file that disappears immediately.
The file itself is not received or saved as expected.
No output in terminal with potential permission error when running with:
`flatpak run --branch=master --arch=x86_64 --arch=x86_64
--comand=kdeconnect-app org.kde.connect`
EXPECTED RESULT
The file is stored in the default `~/Downloads/` directory for the user.
