I see the manifest uses the KDE 5.10 SDK which is based upon Qt 5.10. This is now out of security support and won't recieve further updates. It'd be good to move to either the 5.9 lts or the newer and fresher 5.11 SDK.

Hi dear.
1st of all, I would like to say thank you for offering this great program as flatpak on FlatHub.

Dear, I was on RPMFusion repository package since years without problem. Today, I remove .rpm package from my system (Fedora 30 X64 bit Cinnamon edition) & shifted to this flatpak package. I perform this because I checked RPMFusion repository & saw that they are still not shipping latest stable version of qTox, so I installed flatpak to gain the latest stable version & features of qTox ..... I'm now on version 1.17.2

The problem with this flatpak package is that it does not recognize my laptop camera !

Kindly, to fix this problem as quick as possible. I need qTox with camera almost every day ......

Best.

@nedrichards can you please add @Diadlo @tox-user @anthonybilinski to the people with write access to this repository? They are all maintainers of qTox.

Brief Description
OS: Linux Mint LMDE 3 Cindy
qTox version: v1.16.3.
Commit hash: 8eed684
Toxcore-Version: 0.2.3
Qt version: 5.11.3
Hardware: HP usdt 7900, 4GB Core 2 Duo
While installing qTox on Mint Debian Edition I get a error (see below).
qTox is installed, but doesn't work properly.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to reproduce:
Install Qtox with the help of flathub. https://flathub.org/apps/details/io.github.qtox.qTox
Observed Behavior

Error.
While pulling runtime/io.github.qtox.qTox.Locale/x86_64/stable from remote flathub: GPG verification enabled, but no summary signatures found (use gpg-verify-summary=false in remote config to disable)
Expected Behavior

Unable to sent files (attachments) to friends.
Phone connection not yet tested, maybe errors also.

In qTox/qTox#5999 I try to minimize the differences between the flathub builds and our CI and nightly builds, but I can not build the TCL dependency which is needed for sqlcipher. Is there some special setup on flathub to make this work?

The relevant build output is approximately here: https://travis-ci.org/github/qTox/qTox/jobs/662451860#L2185

The whole build is executed in a debian:stretch-slim docker container.

ping @dgcampea because you seem to have authored the changes for this flathub repo.

If the users search for messenger on flathub.org qTox wont show up.
The reason why suppose to be related with qTox description. See here

Thanks for providing this! Mostly works well, but all the tray options are useless, since no icon is actually shown in tray. Rather this message is shown as part of the startup log:

[22:53:43.141 UTC] widget/widget.cpp:2081 : Warning: No system tray detected!

However when running it with --talk-name=org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher like so:

$ flatpak run  --talk-name=org.kde.StatusNotifierWatcher io.github.qtox.qTox

the issue is fixed. Could you maybe add this to the default finish-args?

Thank you!
