I was unable to reproduce this on either buster or bullseye by removing the
flatpak package from a fairly complete GNOME installation.

This might mean that gnome-builder has an undeclared dependency on
something else that is depended on by flatpak.

(gnome-builder does correctly have an indirect Recommends on Flatpak,
because its design encourages a Flatpak-based workflow.)
