debian-update v0.8.17 — "Oh Snap!" 🚀

Optional Snap Integration

  • Parallel Background Checks: Integrated non-blocking snap refresh --list checks directly into the background systemd service.
  • Full Ecosystem Visibility: Live Snap update counts feed seamlessly into the JSON status cache, system tray applet, and CLI overview.
  • Zero Forced Bloat: snapd is defined as a Suggests dependency to keep system installations completely optional and clean.

Unified Upgrade Pipeline

  • Standardized Sequence: Synchronized execution across CLI, background worker, and system tray menu:
    1. APT Packages
    2. Flatpak Applications
    3. Snap Packages
    4. AppImages
    5. Third-Party .deb Packages (deb-get)

Dynamic Display & UI Polish

  • Conditional UI Execution: Uninstalled package managers are automatically detected and omitted from CLI steps and tray submenus.

Codebase Polish

  • Standardized Source: Cleaned up code structure and commentary using standardized English block separators.

This patch release marks the status of the app as feature complete, and future patches will have performance, bug fixes and under the hood improvements in focus.
The path to version 1.0.0 has support for more languages in the works, and will probably be released within a couple of weeks. There will probably be a couple more patches before 1.0.0 but no major changes are planned from this point on.
