flatpak (1.16.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream stable release
    - Fix a memory leak in flatpak-session-helper when invoking host
      commands (flatpak-spawn --host) from privileged apps
      (Closes: #1114484)
    - Treat either the xe or i915 kernel module as indicating an Intel GPU,
      not just i915, and install the appropriate VA-API extensions
    - If using GLib 2.86.1 (specifically that version due to a regression
      that was later fixed), avoid exposing $HOME to apps if an XDG special
      directory such as Music is requested by the app but has been disabled
      locally
    - In flatpak-kill(1), make killing processes more robust, and avoid race
      conditions that could lead to the whole process group being killed
    - Allow `flatpak run` or `flatpak install --user` while under
      `sudo -u otheruser` or `sudo -g`, as long as the other user is not root,
      relaxing a check that was only intended to avoid accidents involving
      running as root
    - Provide an empty /run/host/font-dirs.xml during flatpak-build(1),
      avoiding spurious warnings for processes that use fontconfig during
      build-time tests
    - Fix a crash in `flatpak install --include-sdk` if the app is installed
      on a per-user basis but the corresponding SDK is already installed
      system-wide
    - Take the --reinstall option into account when installing a bundle
    - Add a missing argument to fcntl F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC during Flatpak's own
      build-time tests, fixing a test regression with newer glibc on Ubuntu
    - Fix flatpak-pin(1)/flatpak-mask(1) with multiple arguments, by
      reloading configuration when needed
    - Fix an assertion failure in flatpak-build-import-bundle(1)
    - When using the library API, allow http downloads with libcurl to be
      cancelled
    - If an OCI registry only has one image, allow the tag to be omitted
    - Fix a memory leak when using an OCI registry
    - Fix an uninitialized variable
    - Documentation improvements
    - Translation updates: pl
  * d/libflatpak-doc.install:
    Install single-file HTML documentation for the library.
    This was built by Autotools in 1.14.x and disappeared during the switch
    to Meson, but is now built again as a result of upstream fixes.
