Ah, thanks for that, I was confused over the dbus aspect. You are right, just 
having them installed lets them get launched by flatpak applications.

Hmm, I didn't notice a change between the versions here. In fact, I am still 
getting an error that the OpenURI handler is not provided, despite seeing it 
provided if I launch the portal manually with --verbose. (I didn't try the 
change to p11-kit as I haven't run into those errors.)

Good to know!

I don't mean to derail the patch discussion, but did finally get the OpenURI 
handler to work, but in an unexpected way: if I launch xdg-desktop-portal 
manually and with --replace. Then it works. Perhaps some difference in 
environment variables or something if it is launched via dbus? The only large 
factor I can think of is that I'm not in a DE but just a WM (but have e.g. 
xdg-open working).

Would appreciate any further tips or bits of your setup, but seems like this is 
on my end and not with the package maybe. Or else needing some configuration 
when not in Gnome or similar.

Thanks!
John
