What’s new in fedpkg 1.36

Add support for a flatpaks namespace

flatpaks will be added as a separate namespace in Fedora distgit: see more info at fedora devel mailing list.

The handling will be like modules - where flatpaks are currently: - No bugzilla bug is required for repository creation - Branch names must be valid module stream names

Make fedpkg update work for containers

We don’t really have an NVR available, but users can fill it in by themselves. Also add severity= option to fedpkg update template. This is now required argument for all security updates.
