Major changes in 0.11.8
=======================
* Flatpak uninstall now accepts --all to remove everything and
--unused to remove unused
runtimes.
* New command "flatpak repair" allows checking and repairing a
flatpak installation.
* New permission --allow=bluetooth allows use of AF_BLUETOOTH sockets
* If p11-kit-server is installed on the host, this is now used to
forward the host
certificate trust store to the sandboxed app.
* New transaction API in libflatpak that makes it much easier to implement
installation and updates in frontends.
* Flatpak uninstall now does not allow you to remove a runtime if
some installed app requires it.
* We now have tab-completion for zsh.
* New installations of flatpak now defaults to bare-user-only repos,
which means
that it works with filesystems that don't support xattrs.
* New flatpak info options: --show-location, --show-runtime, --show-sdk
* New flatpak remote-info options: --show-runtime, --show-sdk
* p2p operations now work when offline.
* Work around hanging on app startup on blocking autofs mounts.
* The dbus proxy filtering now works matches the new dbus containers
filtering API.
* Various optimizations make installation and updates faster. In particular
operations like running triggers and pruning only happens once per
install/update operation.
* We now respect multiple extension versions matches when
auto-downloading extensions.
* New http header Flatpak-Upgrade-From sent when upgrading.
* Commands like "flatpak info/list/remotes/seach" now work properly
if /var/lib/flatpak doesn't exist.
* The bubblewrap version required for system-bwrap is now 0.2.1.
