Hello snapcrafters!

We are pleased to announce the release of version 2.24 of snapcraft has been released:

Here's the list of features that you can find in this new release:

• Experimental classic confinement allowing to create snaps for non pure snappy systems and have them see the full file system.
• alias support for app entries in apps, which allows multiple top level commands per snap.
• New core part atrritbures, prepare, build and install, which support scriptlets to run before, replacing and after the build step of a plugin respectively (snapcraft help plugins for more details).
• New command, list-registered, to have a view of your snaps on the store and some relevant attributes.

Many minor fixes are available as well:

• ldd crawling for system libraries have been improved with more standard library paths to check within the stage directory.
• Multiple core plugins have been updated to not show deprecation messages.
• Multiple parser improvements for shared parts on the wiki.
