Flatpak Package

Manifest for Flatpak

I am not sure if this license would need to be applied to it

Here are the official statements about licensing: https://github.com/flathub/flathub/wiki/App-Requirements#license
"All content hosted on Flathub must allow legal redistribution, and the license must be correctly specified in the app's appdata file."

In the Appstream section https://github.com/flathub/flathub/wiki/App-Requirements#appstream it mentions this license for the metadata: https://creativecommons.org/choose/zero/

Are all the dependencies built in the flatpak yml redistributable? If so, we're okay on that part.

I'll need to look into Appstream a bit more... seems like we need to include a specific metadata file in the flatpak repo?

Another thing I notice on that page is about the desktop file... will the existing desktop file work? It's used for the AppImage right now and configured with cmake to ensure version and a few variables are populated at build time.

Can you link a good example flatpak repo that I can use for reference? I work better with examples.

I believe I have covered all dependencies needed for sunshine on the manifest. They are compiled from source except for the CUDA libraries.

Based on the following information https://github.com/flathub/flathub/wiki/App-Requirements#desktop-integration we may not need a desktop file.

Here is an example on an existing flatpak. https://github.com/flathub/org.ryujinx.Ryujinx
