  • Support all as a target with build-for: [all] (#4854)
  • Ensure Craft Providers provider (LXD or Multipass) is available before launching a build environment
  • Improve presentation of snapcraft.yaml model errors

Metadata

  • Validate that update_contact, donation, vcs-browser, bugtracker, and homepage fields adopted from an appstream metadata file are valid URLs or email addresses

Remote build

  • Allow building core22 snaps with build-for: [all]
  • Support reading Launchpad credentials from the previous location (#4889)

    • This behavior applies to the new and legacy remote builders
  • Require core20 snaps to use the legacy remote builder (#4886)

This hotfix release addresses many bugs with the new remote builder.

Remote builder

The new remote builder will now:

  • produce correctly-named log files (#4781)
  • retry Launchpad API calls with an exponential backoff (canonical/craft-application#355)
  • fail if they do not create any artifacts (#4783)

Core

This release fixes a behavior with patchelf for core24 snaps and temporarily disables the dotnet plugin for core24 snaps.

core24

Patchelf behavior has been corrected so shared libraries from the host system are not loaded for core24 snaps with classic confinement. This is done with patchelf --no-default-lib when patchelf is enabled.

Plugins

dotnet

The dotnet plugin for core24 is being redesigned and has been temporarily disabled until the rewrite is complete.

What's Changed

  • tests: fix flutter spread test by @mr-cal in #4808
  • do not load system libraries for classic core24 snaps, bump craft-parts, unregister dotnet by @mr-cal in #4809
