Major changes in 0.9.3
======================
Changes in flatpak-builder:
* "rename-icon" renames in translated icons too
* Moved manifest format docs to own manpage, "flatpak-manifest".
* "bootstrap.sh" is now recognized as an autogen.sh alternative
* Fall back to not using rofiles-fuse if it is not available.
* Make sure flatpak-builder --run grants the app access to dbus.
* Make paths paths for module includes and module dependencies
relative to the included module rather than the "base" json file.
* When cross-compiling 32bit apps on 64bit arches (like i386 on x86-64)
then we automatically set a linux32 personallity.
* Print warnings for unhandled json properties.
* Make sure flatpak-builder --run works if --extra-data is in the
finish args.
* Take build-commands into consideration when considering if the
build cache is stale.
* Support for --extra-sources= to pre-seed downloaded sources.
* Support for --bundle-sources which creates a runtime with the sources
that were used to build the app.
* Handle trailing whitespace in git submodule uris
* Progress reporting while downloading files.
Other changes:
* build-export now always exports directories as readable and executable.
* build-update-repo --generate-static-deltas now fork the work process
rather than using threads, which avoids problems with this using
a lot of memory in a single process in some cases.
* Report flatpak version in HTTP request user agent.
* New "flatpak repo" command added that has some options for maintaining
a repository.
* flatpak info can now report more information and handles multiple
installed branches better.
* Support non-default WAYLAND_DISPLAY environment var.
* Handle application ids that end with .desktop when generating
appstream data.
* Documentation updates
