1.6.0 (2024-Oct-17)¶

Rockcraft 1.6.0 updates Pydantic, the internal library used to process rockcraft.yaml files, to a new major version. This change should not have any user-visible consequences, but please report any issues on GitHub.
Managed (non-destructive) runs now fail as expected if the build plan is empty. For example, trying to build a project with only amd64 in its platforms will now fail when building on a non-amd64 machine.
package-repositories entries now support series and pocket for apt repositories, and key-id for PPAs.

bare-based rocks now have a default PATH value set on the image, following the behaviour of Pebble services.

On bare-based rocks, the extension now uses Chisel slices for the Python interpreter.
Add support for the ubuntu@24.04 base.

The django-framework extension is now stable and no longer requires the ROCKCRAFT_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_EXTENSIONS environment variable.
Add support for the ubuntu@24.04 base.

Improve reporting of builds that fail because they match multiple platforms.
Improve error messages for invalid rockcraft.yaml files.
The pack command now supports --shell and --shell-after, and correctly handles cases where the packing itself fails and the --debug argument is passed.
The clean command now supports the --platform argument to filter which build environments to clean.
Positional arguments are now correctly displayed on the help output of commands.
The terminal cursor is now hidden during execution.

Add new --profile argument options for go-framework and fastapi-framework.
