1.15.91
Pre-releaseImportant
This is a release candidate for Flatpak 1.16.0. Starting effectively now, only fixes to critical regressions and issues are accepted. Development will be reopened as usual after Flatpak 1.16.0 is released.
Enhancements:
-
Add the
FLATPAK_DATA_DIRenvironment variable, which allows overriding at runtime the data directory location that Flatpak uses to search for configuration files such as remotes. This is useful for running tests, and for when installing using Flatpak in a chroot. -
Add a
FLATPAK_DOWNLOAD_TMPDIRvariable. This allows using download directories other than /var/tmp. -
Emit progress escape sequence. This can be used by terminal emulators to detect and display progress of Flatpak operations on their graphical user interfaces.
Bug fixes:
-
Install missing test data. This should fix "as-installed" tests via
ginsttest-runner, used for example in Debian's autopkgtest framework. -
Unify and improve how the Wayland socket is passed to the sandboxed app. This should fix a regression that is triggered by compositors that both implement the security-context-v1 protocol, and sets the
WAYLAND_DISPLAYenvironment variable when launching Flatpak apps. (#5863) -
Fix the plural form of a translatable string.
