gknowledge 0.3: a Flatpak for every distro, and pages that know their source changed

[francescobianco]

gknowledge 0.3 is out. Six days after 0.2, the native GNOME app that turns your documents into an LLM-maintained wiki now installs on any Linux distribution, and it knows when a page is out of date.

What's new in 0.3.0

• Flatpak for every distro. Fedora, Arch, openSUSE, Ubuntu: one command, GNOME 51 runtime, no access to your home folder (files are opened through portals), PDF import included.
• Pages that know their source changed. Wiki pages rarely go wrong because the model hallucinates; they go stale because the document they came from changed. gknowledge now compares every ingested source with its original file, marks the ones that changed, and Update re-extracts the new version. Thanks to Justin (@fromthearchitect) for the feedback that started this.
• Re-ingest and remove sources, keeping shared pages that other sources still support (thanks @Aaqibhafeezkhan, Show us the smallest useful thing you built on an API #30).
• MCP: a new stale_sources tool, so Claude Code, Codex or Cursor can check the wiki for drift. The server is on PyPI: uvx gknowledge-mcp.
