[Question]: device_info_plus — Privacy Manifest declarations for iOS disk space APIs #3974

What is your question?

Could you help clarify whether the iOS disk-space retrieval in device_info_plus 13.2.0 requires a required-reason API declaration in its Privacy Manifest? If there is existing guidance about this implementation, I would appreciate a pointer.

What I checked

In the package published on pub.dev:

• FPPDeviceInfoPlusPlugin.m calls attributesOfFileSystemForPath:error: inside getDeviceInfo, then reads free and total disk space from the returned dictionary using the NSFileSystemFreeSize and NSFileSystemSize keys.
• The bundled PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy has an empty NSPrivacyAccessedAPITypes array.

I also inspected an unsigned iOS Release build. The resulting device_info_plus framework contains references to the disk-space API, and its bundled manifest still has an empty NSPrivacyAccessedAPITypes array.

For context, my app obtains OS information through the Aptabase Flutter SDK. Aptabase does not include the disk-space values in its outgoing payload, but they are retrieved by the native plugin along with the OS information.

Apple's required-reason API list lists systemFreeSize and systemSize under disk space. This implementation reads the values from the dictionary returned by attributesOfFileSystemForPath:error: instead. Am I understanding correctly that this retrieval method also needs a reason declaration? Is there a rationale or guidance for leaving the array empty in this case?

I have not submitted this configuration to the App Store. This question is based on source inspection and an unsigned Release build; I am not reporting an Apple warning or an App Review rejection.

I found #2751, but that discussion predates the disk-space retrieval added in #3536, so I thought this might be a separate question. Please let me know if I have overlooked an existing explanation or issue.
