SUMMARY

Please add Qt Graphs to the KDE Flatpak runtime. Currently it is not in the runtime, and that is both inconvenient and seemingly error-prone. Easy Effects (Qt app) ran into a bug with its Flatpak package due to the KDE Flatpak runtime being updated without the application being rebuilt. Since the Flatpak application bundles in its own build of Qt Graphs the application did not start due to some ABI breakage. Rebuilding the Easy Effects Flatpak package with the newer runtime/sdk fixed the issue.

The sanest way to avoid this I imagine is to build Qt Graphs in the KDE Flatpak runtime. This would of course increase the size of the runtime. I don't know how popular Qt Graphs (or the now deprecated Qt Charts) is, so I don't know how beneficial this would be for most apps.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Qt Version: 6.10
