Changes in 1.18.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2026-06-08
Enhancements:
* Improve error handling and printed output of
`flatpak-coredumpctl` (#6649,
#6680)
* Support the AMD vendor specific compute interface (`/dev/kfd`)
via the DRI
device permission (#6648)
* Improve the output of `flatpak update` with failure causes (#6657)
* Improve startup time for fish shell integration (#6635)
* Translation updates: zh_CN (#6671)
Bug fixes:
* Fix building when HAVE_LIBSYSTEMD but not USE_SYSTEM_HELPER is
defined (#6652)
* Ignore system bus failures in parental controls check (#6663)
* Fix some return values and replace deprecated `GTimeVal` with
`g_get_real_time()` (#6646)
* Suppress an unused-result warning in the tests (#6655)
Changes in 1.17.7
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Released: 2026-05-06
Enhancements:
* Add the new permission conditionals `has-usb-device` and
`has-usb-portal` to
allow apps to drop --device=all and --device=usb permissions
(#6560)
* Always send the `Flatpak-Upgrade-From` header when updating
instead of
freshly installing, to improve the quality of statistics (#6626)
* Improve how the absence of the system repo is handled (#6621)
* Changes to repos are now more atomic which helps to avoid them
being in an
invalid state. This could be observed when importing the GPG key
failed,
because the system clock was wrong. (#6547)
* A function to report the age of the configuration was added to
libflatpak,
which will help GNOME Software to prevent unnecessary work (#6532)
* Improvements to the build system (#6614, #6610)
* Improve various tests (#6604, #6606, #6619, #6617, #6605, #6625)
* Translation updates: tr (#6629), zh_CN (#6630)
Bug fixes:
* Fix a regression in handling of the fallback-x11 permission,
which was
affecting overrides from Flatseal (#6632)
* Fix a memory leak in the Flatpak portal (#6613)
* Install SELinux configuration files to the right directory (#6622)
* Silence wrong `lseek()` errors when creating sub-sandboxes (#6609)
