There are two notable changes in this release.
First, this release adapts to a change in libcurl 8.10.1 that caused ostree to start crashing. There is ongoing debate as to whether the curl change here was right, but in any case the adaption required on our side was trivial and to emphasize - it's quite safe to cherry pick the relevant commit to prior ostree releases too.
Second, for the booted host side, we've changed the mount propagation setup. More details in
- switchroot: Stop making /sysroot mount private by @dbnicholson in #3292
Other than that there are a variety of more minor tweaks and fixes.
