            Bug ID: 486838
           Summary: flatpak: file dialogue to add attachment has by
                    default no read permission to any files
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 6.0.2
          Platform: Flatpak
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: robert at riemann.cc
  Target Milestone: ---

Recently, I switched to Kinoite 40 and installed Kontact as flatpak from the
fedora flatpak repository. It is now in version 6.0.2.

When I try to draft an email and click on 'add attachment', a file picker opens
that cannot see any files. I have then reconfigured the flatpak permissions and
added manually create access to all user files and /tmp.

I would expect Kmail/Kontact to possess the necessary permissions by default.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fedora kontact flatpak
2. create a new email
3. try to add an attachment using the file picker
Actual Results:  
notice that no file can be selected in file picker

Expected Results:  
I can choose any file from the system in the file picker
