Barrier: Flatpak issue / KDE dependencies / OpenSSL versions on Solus

I'll look into the issue when I get some time, sorry for the late response. The flatpak probably needs to be updated anyway.

Also having this issue on Ubuntu 18.10, worked fine on Lubuntu 18.10.

I don't see how this would even be possible? They're the same base distro.

On Fedora 29 (with Gnome and x11 rather than Wayland, due to lack of Wayland support):

$ flatpak --user install flathub org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.10
Skipping: org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.10 is already installed
$ flatpak install barrier com.github.debauchee.barrier
error: The application com.github.debauchee.barrier/x86_64/stable requires the runtime org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.10 which was not found

I don't think 5.10 is supported anymore, and barrier won't compile with 5.11 at the moment. The flatpak is essentially dead at this point. I'll probably lock the issue but leave it open so that people can find it.

Not really resolved, but I said what I said.

I'm going to try building against the 5.12 runtime, skipping the 5.11 runtime entirely.

Building against 5.12 still fails as seen here: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/issues/154#issuecomment-453712038

I got barrier to build against 5.12 by using the tag v2.1.2, don't ask how/why this works, because I don't know. This means the flatpak is not exactly dead anymore.

The flatpak running in server mode!

The flatpak of barrier in client mode, connected to the server! :)

I would appreciate it if people could test this. https://github.com/debauchee/barrier/releases/tag/v2.1.2

fwiw, I installed it from the repo, and it installed and has ran correctly on both client and server.

Ha! sorry, did not see the update until now, I am not daily on Github.

Have not thoroughly tested yet if it runs, but the installation errors are gone, installs just fine now on lastest Solus!

Thanks a bunch, will test actual usage the next days and report back!

No problem, glad I solved the install issue.

...and it works! Couple issues for my configuration, but those have nothing to do with the flatpak.

Thanks Adrian for this release!

No proble, glad to get this long-ish standing issue solved.

Unfortunately it's not fixed for me.
I'm using Ubuntu 18.10, follow the instructions in the v2.12, and get the message

error: The application com.github.debauchee.barrier/x86_64/stable requires the runtime org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.12 which was not found

I did the install on my Kali machine and it worked straight away
On Ubuntu I ran
flatpak install flathub org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.12
and after that I launch the barrier install again and then it worked
