flatpak 1.12.3-1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

flatpak (1.12.3-1) unstable; urgency=high

  * New upstream stable release
  * Security fixes:
    - Prevent a malicious repository from arranging for permissions to be
      granted without being correctly displayed during installation
      (CVE-2021-43860, GHSA-qpjc-vq3c-572j)
    - Prevent a malicious build in flatpak-builder creating directories
      outside the build directory (GHSA-8ch7-5j3h-g4fx)
  * Behaviour changes, as a result of how GHSA-8ch7-5j3h-g4fx was fixed:
    - --nofilesystem=host is now special-cased to negate all --filesystem
      permissions. Previously, it would cancel out --filesystem=host but
      not --filesystem=/some/dir.
    - --nofilesystem=home is now special-cased to negate several
      home-directory-related filesystem permssions such as
      --filesystem=xdg-config/foo, not just --filesystem=host.
  * Other bug fixes:
    - Extra-data downloading now properly handles compressed
      content-encodings, which fixes checksum verification
    - Avoid unnecessary polkit prompt due to auto-pinning when installing
      runtimes
    - Better handling of updates of extensions that exist in multiple
      repositories
    - Fixed (initial) installation of apps with renamed app-IDs
    - Support more pulseaudio configuration, including the one used in WSL2
    - Fixed regression in updates from no-enumerate remotes
    - We now verify checksums of summary caches, to better handle local file
      corruption
    - Improved CLI output for non-terminal targets
    - Flatpak run --session-bus now works
    - Fix build with PyParsing >= 3.0.4
    - bash auto completion now doesn't complete on command name aliases
    - Minor improvements to the search command
    - Minor improvements to the list command
    - Minor improvements to the repair command
    - Add more tests
    - Updated translations and docs
  * d/copyright: Update

flatpak: Application deployment framework for desktop apps

 Flatpak installs, manages and runs sandboxed desktop application bundles.
 Application bundles run partially isolated from the wider system, using
 containerization techniques such as namespaces to prevent direct access
 to system resources. Resources from outside the sandbox can be accessed
 via "portal" services, which are responsible for access control; for
 example, the Documents portal displays an "Open" dialog outside the
 sandbox, then allows the application to access only the selected file.
 .
 Each application uses a specified "runtime", or set of libraries, which is
 available as /usr inside its sandbox. This can be used to run application
 bundles with multiple, potentially incompatible sets of dependencies within
 the same desktop environment.
 .
 This package contains the services and executables needed to install and
 launch sandboxed applications, and the portal services needed to provide
 limited access to resources outside the sandbox.
