Flatpak-builder doesn't recognize my flathub remote

1

I’m trying to build my first Flatpak, and flatpak-builder seems to be unaware of my configured flathub remote:

$ flatpak remotes --columns=all
Name    Title           URL                                    Collection ID Subset Filter Priority Options    Comment                                    Description                                Homepage             Icon

What am I missing?

I’m running flatpak-builder with the --user flag, which means only the remotes from flatpak remotes --user are available. I should either drop --user flag or add the Flathub remote on user level as well.
