This is the first unstable release in the series that will lead to 1.12.

New features:

  • All instances of the same app-ID share their /tmp directory
  • All instances of the same app-ID share their $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
  • Instances of the same app-ID can optionally share their /dev/shm directory
    (enabled by a new --allow flag, --allow=per-app-dev-shm)
  • Allow a subsandbox to have a different /usr and/or /app.
    Steam will use this to launch games with its own container runtime
    as /usr (the "Steam Linux Runtime" mechanism).
  • enter: Improve support for TUI programs like gdb
  • build-update-repo: Add a higher-performance reimplementation of
    ostree prune specialized for archive-mode repositories

Bug fixes:

  • Fix deploys of local remotes in system-helper
  • Fix test failures on non-x86_64 systems
  • Fix two intermittent test failures
  • Make polkit queries non-interactive when operating in non-interactive mode
  • Use a local main-context when using libsoup in a thread
  • create-usb: Skip copying extra-data flatpaks
  • OCI: Switch to pax-format tar archives
  • history: Handle transaction log entries with empty REF field
  • portal: Fix flatpak-spawn --clear-env on OSs where flatpak is not on
    the fallback PATH, such as NixOS
  • Fix various issues detected by scan-build

Internal changes:

  • Use GNU bison to build parse-datetime.y
  • Add information about security support and security vulnerability
    reporting (see SECURITY.md)
  • Move all git submodules into subprojects/ directory
  • Several sockets are now created in /run/flatpak in the sandbox, with
    symbolic links in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
