Bug Description

On KDE in Kubuntu 24.04 (both X11 and Wayland), the application window appears for two or three seconds and then crashes. It works fine on Fluxbox and Gnome. I didn't have these issues in 0.18.1 that I used before (a couple of months ago).

Expected Behaviour

The application should not crash.

Steps to Reproduce

1. install JASP via "flatpak install JASP" on Kubuntu
2. launch JASP via "flatpak run org.jaspstats.JASP"

Log (if any)

$ flatpak run org.jaspstats.JASP

There is no output after the application crashed. The system log doesn't contain any information either.

Here are diffs of the program output on Gnome/Wayland compared to KDE/X11 and Wayland:

I also tried the beta version from flathub-beta with the same result.

I launched JASP under a different user in KDE and got a popup asking to allow JASP to run in the background. When I confirmed it, JASP ran without crashing. I remembered having seen that popup for my regular user account, but seem to have clicked it away or not confirmed it.

Research on how to enable it for my regular user reveiled that I need to use Flatseal to allow it to run in the background:

$ flatpak install flathub com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
$ flatpak run com.github.tchx84.Flatseal

Now I can configure all kinds of settings for JASP, amongst them being "Can run in the background". Problem solved...
