published New Stable Tool branch Flatpak 1.14 , which provides a system for assembling self -sufficient packages that are not tied to specific Linux distributions and performed in a special container, isolating the application from the rest of the system. Support for Flatpak packages is provided for Arch Linux, centos , debian, fedora, gentoo, mini, mini, mass Mint, Alt Linux and Ubuntu. Flatpak packages are included in the Fedora repository and are supported in the standard application management program GNOME.
Key innovations in Flatpak 1.14 branch:
- Provides the creation of a catalog for files in the state (.Local/state) and setting the XDG_STATE_HOME.
- Added conditional checks of the type of “Have-Cernel-Mole-Hammer” to determine the presence of a nucleus modules (a universal analogue of a previously proposed Have-INTEL-GPU test, instead of which you can use the expression “Have-Cernel-Module-I915”).
- The command “Flatpak Document-UNEXPORT –DOC-AID = …”.

- The INSTALL team “–Include-SDK” and “–Include-debug” for installing SDK and Debuginfo files.
- Flatpakref and Flatpakrepo files added support for the “Deploysideloadcollection” parameter, when installing the collection identifier will be set while adding a remote repository, and not after loading metadata.
- It is allowed to create nested Sandbox-reins for handlers in sessions with separate names MPRIS (Media Player Remote Intergacing Specification).
- In the command line utilities, information about the use of obsolete Runtime expanding is ensured.
- In the Uninstall team, a request for confirmation is implemented before removing Runtime or Runtime Expectations that are still used.
- In the commands, similar “Flatpak Run” added the support of the option “—socket = GPG-agent.”
