Package: gnome-builder
Version: 3.30.3-2
Severity: grave
Debian 10 Buster
Dear maintainer,
gnome-builder does not start at all when the flatpak package is not
installed, and returns code 255. gneom-builder *recommends*
flatpak-builder which in turns depends on flatpak, but if you have
like me disabled installation of recommended packages by defautl the
the program won't start at all.
flatpak should be a hard dependency for the gnome-builder package.
Thanks
$ gnome-builder
ptrace: Operation not permitted.

# gnome-builder does not start
$ echo $?
255
$ sudo apt install flatpak
...
$ gnome-builder
# gnome-builder starts properly
