Where can I submit feature requests / patches for this? So I am using the project's binary distribution (unzipped to ./freeplane-1.5.18) with the 'dump' plugin, which works well. However, since I'm not using a java build system, the jre is missing in the snap (when running "freeplane-snap" I get an error that the JDK cannot be found, NOT when running freeplane.sh directly). I tried to add it with 'stage-packages: [openjdk-8-jre]' but this did not help. Could you please tell me how to add the jre to the mix? One more question: Hearing about this containment stuff, is it possible/feasible (using plugs?) to to create a desktop application that can read and write (mind maps) from/to everywhere, just like a normal .deb? (like plugs: [network, home, tmp]?) I also need to install the desktop file and mime type mappings to /usr/share/... --> I assume I can do this with separate parts?
