0.9.6

[vinifmor]

Improvements

• AppImage
  • creating a symlink for the installed applications at ~.local/bin (the link will have the same name of the application. if the link already exists, it will be named as 'app_name-appimage') #122
  • new initialization task that checks if the installed AppImage files have symlinks associated with (it creates new symlinks if needed)

  

  - able to update AppImages with continuous releases
• UI
  • not performing a full table refresh after installing and uninstalling packages
  • filters algorithm speed and sorting
  • "ignore updates" action now takes less time to update the table content
  • displaying the "wait cursor" over some components while performing some actions
  • sorting installed packages by their names #124
  • some components compatibility with the system's color scheme
  • allowing "Oxygen" as a default style
  • big refactoring regarding the components states (now it is easier to maintain the code)
• Settings
  • new property ui.scale_factor responsible for defining the interface scale factor. Useful if bauh looks
    small on the screen. It can be changed through the settings window (Interface tab):
