Project Description

Zero Install is a decentralized cross-distribution software installation system. It allows software developers to publish programs directly from their own Web sites, while supporting features familiar from centralized distribution repositories such as shared libraries, automatic updates, and digital signatures. It is intended to complement, rather than replace, the operating system's package management. 0install packages never interfere with those provided by the distribution.

Support for multi-arch systems, which can run both 32- and 64-bit binaries, was added. There is a workaround for a bug in xdg-desktop-menu for programs with spaces in their names. Options have been added to specify the OS and CPU type manually. The 0export command is provided to turn any Zero Install application into a self-extracting bundle.

Integration with RPM is now supported, in addition to dpkg. This allows a native RPM to fulfil a dependency from a Zero Install package. Bindings can now be given for implementations, not just for dependencies, making some programs easier to package. Some minor bugs were fixed.
