Description Justin Zobel 2024-10-14 22:44:32 UTC

SUMMARY
When downloading a flatpak app, the dependencies are not taken into account on the progress bar. This shows no activity at all while dependencies e.g. runtimes are installed.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have no flatpaks installed
2. Use Discover to install kalk

OBSERVED RESULT
Tasks view shows no activity, no progress, no download speed while dependency is downloading. See system monitor to confirm downloads are happening via network usage.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dependencies are included in progress, speed shown. Alternatively, just say downloading dependencies until a full solution can be implemented.

flatpak: try to tie runtimes to an app ref

this should allow status reporting to work correctly even though we
otherwise ignore runtimes. essentially we try to establish a mapping
from runtime to app ref and then treat the runtime as part of the app
transaction.
