VRKA 4.5.1 Build 019

Highlights

  • Secure Application Self-Updater: Automated in-app update checking, cryptographic OpenPGP release signature verification against the pinned authoritative release key, SHA-256 integrity validation, distribution type detection (Installer vs Portable), and safe staging.
  • Independent Component Updaters: Dedicated, decoupled updaters for yt-dlp (with official upstream signature verification and rollback), uBlock Origin Lite (MV3), and Puemos Media Observer (MV3).
  • 24-Hour Rate-Limited Startup Check: Background check at most once per 24 hours with durable persistence in ~/.vrka/update_state.json.
  • Unified Component Update Prompt: Non-blocking modal overlay showing all available updates with one-click batch installation and non-nagging "Later" dismissal.
  • Concurrency & Debounce Protection: Background worker locks preventing simultaneous update checks or race conditions.
  • Byte-Exact Authenticity Packaging: Strict LF-only manifest line endings ensuring zero CRLF drift between signed and verified bytes.
  • Full Test Suite Coverage: 169 automated tests with 100% pass rate.
