iRASPA packaged as Flatpak

[kevinsmia1939]

Hi,
I tried to package iRASPA as Flatpak.
Here is the manifest https://github.com/kevinsmia1939/flathub/tree/org.iraspa.iRASPA
Right now it compile and run, however, the log console show.

error (10:28:54): Gallery database not found
error (10:28:54): IZA database not found
error (10:28:54): CoREMOF database not found

verbose (10:28:54): multisampling: 8

In my flatpak manifest, I did install them like this.

      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/databasecoremof.irspdoc ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/databasecoremofddec.irspdoc ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/databaseiza.irspdoc ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/libraryofstructures.irspdoc ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/license-gpl.pdf ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -m 644 iraspa/datafiles/acknowledgedlicenses.pdf ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/iraspa
      - install -Dm 644 iraspa/datafiles/iraspa.desktop ${FLATPAK_DEST}/share/applications/${FLATPAK_ID}.desktop

where ${FLATPAK_DEST} corresponds to /app
I assume iRASPA just don't know where to look for them, how do I change this?
Also, would you be ok if I submit this to Flathub? I will keep it update, but the core devs would be invite to be the maintainer as well.

Also, the idea of adding RASPA into iRASPA flatpak comes to mind, would it make sense?
Thanks.

In 'MainWindow::readDatabase' in file 'iraspagui/mainwindow.cpp', there is:
#ifdef USE_SNAP
QDir dir("/snap/iraspa/current/usr/share/iraspa/");
#else
QDir dir("/usr/share/iraspa/");
//QDir dir(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath());
#endif

So, the default location is "/usr/share/iraspa/". You could add -DFLATPAK when compiling and:
#ifdef USE_SNAP
QDir dir("/snap/iraspa/current/usr/share/iraspa/");
#elif FLATPAK
QDir dir("flatpak-location");
#else
QDir dir("/usr/share/iraspa/");
//QDir dir(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath());
#endif
and fill in the appropriate flatpak location.

Submitting to Flathub is fine. One issue with snaps and flatpaks is that OpenCL is not supported and iRASPA falls back to CPU-computation for certain computations.
