v3.17.0

Highlight

The release brings overall improvements regarding the Flatpak support & integration:

• Switch to a more robust and reliable way to extract the list of Flatpak packages that are available for update.

• Provide a more meaningful list for users by relying on applications names rather than applications IDs (e.g. Discord, Spotify, Firefox rather than com.discordapp.Discord, com.spotify.Client, org.mozilla.firefox).

• Add support to display updates versions for Flatpak packages in the pending updates listing (note that, as opposed to packages and AUR packages, it only includes the targeted version but not the actual version changes like Discord 0.0.114 -> 0.0.115 and no colored output as well, but we're limited by the flatpak CLI on that front). Of course, the NoVersion option from the arch-update.conf configuration file applies here, if enabled.

v3.15.8

Highlight

This release includes a minor security fix to the systray applet:

URLs retrieved from packages metadata are now validated before being opened via xdg-open (when clicking on a package entry in the list of available updates from the systray applet), in order to ensure that only standard web URLs (http:// or https://) are allowed.
This prevents eventual non-web URLs (such as file://something) from being accidentally opened.

• (optdepends) Remove mentions of qt6-wayland (#425) - (7323154) by @Antiz96
