This is an exciting release with many new features and improvements. Among the features to highlight:
- New parts ecosystem where remote parts are managed with some new snapcraft commands such as, update, search and define.
- Many improvements to the parts parser backend.
- More store interaction straight from snapcraft, `snapcraft register` is now available to register your snap name.
- Subversion support as a source.
- A gulp plugin
- A qmake plugin
- The possibility of loading from a .snapcraft.yaml (<dot>snapcraft
Among improvements:
- rpath with $ORIGIN is properly taken care of now (no more /home/... paths added).
- Error message improvements across the board.
- cleanbuild now properly creates ephemeral containers.
