v3.8.3 — Proxy & Linux RPM Updater Fix

2 hours ago

What's Changed

This patch fixes proxy-aware file resolution for extensionless URL downloads and restores auto-update support for Linux RPM users.

✨ New Features

  • Directory quick-pick popover — favorite and recent folder management for task save locations
  • Remote file extension resolutionresolve_filename infers file extensions from remote URLs via HEAD requests

🛠 Improvements

  • RPM updater support — Added linux-x86_64-rpm and linux-aarch64-rpm platform entries to the updater JSON, enabling in-app auto-update for RPM-based distributions (Fedora, openSUSE, etc.)
  • Added diagnostic logging to proxy application for easier remote debugging
  • Persist directory preferences and auto-animate transitions for directory popover lists

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Proxy not applied for extensionless URL resolution — The AddTask dialog was missing the proxy parameter when resolving remote filenames, causing HEAD requests to bypass the configured system proxy (#248)
  • Linux RPM auto-update fails with "invalid updater binary format" — RPM users were falling back to AppImage during auto-update because the updater manifest lacked RPM platform entries (#250)
  • Fixed basename extraction logic to correctly handle path segments
