Major changes in 0.9.2
======================
* Fixed a use-after-free and some leaks in the dbus-proxy. This
is not currently believed to be exploitable, but the proxy is a
security boundary, so we still recommend to update.
* Regular updates now never allow updates to an older version
than what is currently installed (unless you explicitly specify
an old commit id). This closes a hole where a MITM attacker can
force clients to downgrade to an earlier (gpg-signed) version of
the application.
* The automatic detection of --from in flatpak install now detects
flatpakref extensions even in URIs that end in a query string such as
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-apps-nightly/plain/gedit.flatpakref?h=stable
* OCI support now supports GPG signatures
* OCI support now works with the system-helper for unprivileged systemwide
installation.
* Experimental support for the new ostree bare-user-only repo mode that
allows flatpak to run on filesytems without xattrs. Set
FLATPAK_OSTREE_REPO_MODE=user-only in the environment to use this.
* builder: New property disable-fsckobjects for git sources
* builder: New property commit for git sources. This lets you specify
both a tag (for readability) and a commit id (to ensure the tag doesn't
change).
* builder: The manifest file format docs have been split out into its
own manpage.
* builder: App manifests now support specifying sdk-extensions that has
to be installed for the app to build.
* builder: When creating the platform, remove all sdk-specific extensions,
allowing creation of sdk-specific extensions.
* builder: Correctly handle absolute pathnames in the specified
command.
* builder: Support --default-branch which defined the branch to build in
case the manifest doesn't specify one.
* When exporting builds to ostree we now use the canonical permissions
for bare-user files, which means the resulting builds can safely
be used with the new ostree bare-user-only repository type.
* The detection of "unmaintained" system extensions was broken, and
in some cases these extensions were not found. This now always
works.
* Flatpak now builds with latest OSTree. This required some fixing for
multiple definitions of the g_auto* macros as OSTree now exports
those.
* We no longer rely on ostree trivial-httpd for the tests, because
this is optional in later versions of ostree. Instead we use
they python SimpleHTTPServer.
* The minimum glib version has been corrected to 2.44.
* The minumum automake version has been increased to 1.13.4
because some older version didn't work.
