Notable features and fixes

This release addresses several bugs and adds new improvements, including:

  • flox init in Node projects will now select the correct version of NodeJS.
  • flox services status --json now outputs a JSON array instead of JSON lines.
  • Fixed documented environment variables when nesting an activation with an in-place activation from RC files (e.g. default environment).
  • flox install now prints a more helpful error message for packages that provide conflicting files.
  • Improved the messaging of upgrade notifications pointing at flox upgrade --dry-run to see what upgrades are available before performing them.
  • flox containerize on macOS no longer uses separate cache volumes or container images per Flox version, which prevents unnecessary cache invalidations and no longer requires manual garbage collection when upgrading Flox. Any version suffixed volumes can be safely deleted after this release with docker volume rm flox-nix-v{VERSION} or podman volume rm flox-nix-v{VERSION}.
  • flox upgrade will no longer panic under certain circumstances.
  • flox --version now reports the correct version when running in nested activations from different Flox versions. The undocumented FLOX_VERSION environment variable is no longer available within activations.
