Something in your app - either your own application code, or a toolkit
like GTK or Qt that you're using - is passing an invalid glob pattern
in the 'filters' option. Currently, the only invalid glob pattern
that is detected is an empty string.

For example, if you're using GtkFileChooser, don't use
gtk_file_filter_add_pattern (filter, ""). If you want to accept all files,
maybe use gtk_file_filter_add_pattern (filter, "*") instead, or don't use
a filter at all.

I don't think that assumption is correct here.

See the flatpak-build-finish(1) man page or
<http://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/flatpak-command-reference.html#flatpak-build-finish>.

For some permissions, more details are provided in the flatpak-metadata(5)
man page or
<http://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/flatpak-command-reference.html#flatpak-metadata>.
