> Renamed from xdg-app to Flatpak.  Existing repositories should keep

>  * The command names are now flatpak/flatpak-builder
>  * System-wide installed apps/runtimes need to be reinstalled
>  * flatpak-builder uses a ".flatpak-builder" subdirectory instead
>    of ".xdg-app-builder".
>  * The bus name and interface name for the permission
>    store is changed, it was in org.freedesktop.XdgApp, but is
>    now in org.freedesktop.impl.portal.DesktopPortal.
>  * The installation migration is a one-time operation so you can't
>    go back to xdg-app after updating.
>  * The library API (and name) changed due to the rename.

> Other changes:
>  * Flatpak now hard-requires ostree 2016.15
>  * Switch from using xdg-app-helper to an included version of bubblewrap:
>    https://github.com/projectatomic/bubblewrap
>  * Added a policykit-based system helper that allows you to authenticate
>    via polkit to install into the system repository.
>  * Added an experimental command to export/import applications and runtimes
>    as an OCI tarball.
>  * builder: Fix creation of locale extensions if there was no locale data
> in the
>    build.
>  * Its now possible to disable/enable configured remotes.
>  * A lot of new tests where added, and we now support installed tests.
>  * builder now has an optional --arch argument for multiarch building.
>  * Builder modules can be disabled with "disabled": true.
>  * Using --filesystem=/tmp now hides the system X11 sockets.
