+- Update to version 1.6.1:
+  + This is a (mild) security update. Flatpak 1.6.0 added the
+    ability for an application to request it to be updated, as long
+    as the new version doesn't require new permissions.
+    Unfortunately in some special cases, if an app had access to
+    the home directory, but not the rest of the filesystem it would
+    still allow a self-update where the new version could access
+    some files outside the home directory.
+  + New permission --device=shm giving access to host /dev/shm, as
+    needed for jack.
+  + Generated correct download size in build-commit-from
+  + sub-sandbox now allows the child to share the gpu of the caller
+    has full device access
+  + Fix crash with disabled remotes
+  + Fix builds with older versions of glib
+  + Updated translations.
