0.9.0

Build system

Building this version of bubblewrap with Meson is recommended. The source release bubblewrap-0.9.0.tar.xz no longer contains Autotools-generated files, although this version can still be built using Autotools after running ./autogen.sh. Future versions are likely to remove the Autotools build system altogether.

--symlink is now idempotent, meaning it succeeds if the symlink already exists and already has the desired target (#549, flatpak/flatpak#2387, flatpak/flatpak#3477, flatpak/flatpak#5255)
Clarify security considerations in documentation (#555, #560, #621)
Clarify documentation for --cap-add (#562)
Report a better error message if mount(2) fails with ENOSPC (#615, ValveSoftware/steam-runtime#637)
Make it easier to add new unit tests (#420)
Drop support for ancient Python versions in demo code

Fix a double-close on error reading from --args, --seccomp or --add-seccomp-fd argument (#558)
Improve memory allocation behaviour (#556, #624)
Silence various compiler warnings (#559)
Silence an Automake warning (#622)
Fix a test failure when running as uid 0 in a container (#488)
Fix a test failure when /mnt is a symlink (#599)
Fix a test failure on NixOS (#603)
