[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#861068: flatpak: Flatpak should install at least one of the portals

[Carlos Soriano]

Package: flatpak
Version: 0.9.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Flatpak relies on portals to communicate to some services. Currently in Debian
they are in the recommended packages, but none is installed once Flatpak is
installed.
This is wrong, the installation of Flatpak should always pull at least one of
the portals installation. So far, only portal-gtk is available, so it's safe to
assume to install that one.

Withouth this, Flatpak applications cannot open other services like other apps
or the gtkfilechooser.

FWIW this is the behaviour followed in Arch and Fedora (and soon OpenSUSE and
Ubuntu)
