Research direction
The report only identifies an Ubuntu 20 GNOME environment and the XDG desktop portal error; no source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the GUI application launch in that environment and determine whether the portal warning affects functionality; a fix would need to eliminate or correctly handle the reported error.
