Version 2.0.0

on GitHub

Changes in this release:

• Now using jlesage/baseimage as the baseimage.
• Removed all non-GUI related stuff that has been moved to jlesage/baseimage.
• [*] Configuration used by openbox is now located at /etc/xdg/openboxrc.xml (instead of /home/guiapp/.config/openbox/rc.xml).
• [*] Moved the application's icon install script from /opt/install_app_icon.sh to /usr/local/bin/install_app_icon.sh.
• [*] The following XDG environment variables are now set, potentially affecting where the GUI application store its data/config:
  • XDG_DATA_HOME=/config/xdg/data
  • XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/config/xdg/config
  • XDG_CACHE_HOME=/config/xdg/cache
• Changes brought by the usage of the new baseimage:
  • Improved the way a service is waiting for another by adding a generic mechanism.
  • Taking ownership of /config can now be controlled via the environment variable TAKE_CONFIG_OWNERSHIP.
  • Added helper to ease installation and removal of packages.
  • Added helper to ease verification of modifications applied to files using sed.
  • [*] The name of the user running the application changed from guiapp to app.
  • [*] The $HOME environment variable is no longer set.
  • [*] The /home/guiapp directory has been removed.
• Changes marked with [*] can break building and/or execution of containers based on v1.x of this baseimage.
