BuildStream 1.6.6 released

[Tristan Van Berkom <tr...@codethink.co.uk>]

Hi all,

This is another bugfix release in the 1.6.x stable series.


What is BuildStream ?
=====================
BuildStream is a Free Software tool for building/integrating software
stacks. It takes inspiration, lessons and use-cases from various
projects including OBS, Reproducible Builds, Yocto, Baserock,
Buildroot, Aboriginal, GNOME Continuous, JHBuild, Flatpak Builder and
Android repo.

BuildStream supports multiple build-systems (e.g. autotools, cmake,
distutils, make, meson), and can create outputs in a range of formats
(e.g. debian packages, flatpak runtimes, sysroots, system images) for
multiple platforms and chipsets.


=================
buildstream 1.6.6
=================

  o BuildStream git tests have always assumed default git branch is
  master. This is now explicit with test helpers

  o project.refs of subprojects are properly taken into account

  o ostree regressed as part of migrating to command-line that it left
  whitespace into ref when tracking. Any whitespace around ref is now
  removed.

  o pb2 files are regenerated with protobuf 3.20.1 to mitigate forward
  compatibility issues. This has the implication that protobuf 3.19.0
  or higher is now required.
