Hey all,
I made some changes to maybe(?) successfully push the 7.0.0 build to flathub.
Right now it fails on validation because flathub changed their metadata guidelines sometime in the past months.
Related PR to update the flatpak manifest and https://buildbot.flathub.org/#/builders/25/builds/14554
developer_name is deprecated but it cannot be removed because some frontends do not support the new developer tag yet see:

Verify the metainfo.xml offline
git clone https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka && cd czkawka
appstreamcli validate --explain data/com.github.qarmin.czkawka.metainfo.xml
or
flatpak run --command=flatpak-builder-lint org.flatpak.Builder appstream data/com.github.qarmin.czkawka.metainfo.xml
ERROR before any changes:
Maybe also consider changing the app id from com.github.qarmin.czkawka to io.github.qarmin.czkawka. See https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/conventions.html
