Description

I would like to ask, it Gittyup (Linux build) support on WSLg?

When I try to run the application, it throw below error:

tai@Tai-Notebook:~$ flatpak run com.github.Murmele.Gittyup
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

WSL Distro: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS
Windows 11 21H2 (10.0.22000.778)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with flatpak run com.github.Murmele.Gittyup in the reported Ubuntu 20.04 WSLg environment and investigate the Qt display/platform setup. Done means the Linux Flatpak launches successfully under WSLg without the reported display or Qt platform plugin errors.
