Flatpak 0.8.0 Linux App Sandboxing Supports Dependencies When Installing Bundles

Among the improvements added in Flatpak 0.8.0, we can mention that Flatpakrepo files now support a RuntimeRepo= key that can point to a flatpakrepo file, dependencies are now supported when installing bundles, the OCI support has been updated to the latest OCI spec version, and the “–bundle” and “–from” options were made optional. Furthermore, it looks like the “-y” option is now enabled by default to avoid interactive prompts when installing Flatpaks, a regression in the document portal that occurred when attempting to add named files was fixed, the build-import-bundle command now signs the commit if a GPG key is specified, and flatpak-builder got several changes.
