## Breaking Changes
### Config paths are no longer canonicalized
This fixes nix configs changing shell-ids on rebuild as the shell id is now derived from
the symlink path. Configs with a symlink in their path will have a different shell id.
Shell ids are used to derive the default config / state / cache folders, so those files
will need to be manually moved if using a config behind a symlinked path without an explicitly
set shell id.
## New Features
- Added support for creating Polkit agents.
- Added support for creating wayland idle inhibitors.
- Added support for wayland idle timeouts.
- Added support for inhibiting wayland compositor shortcuts for focused windows.
- Added the ability to override Quickshell.cacheDir with a custom path.
- Added minimized, maximized, and fullscreen properties to FloatingWindow.
- Added the ability to handle move and resize events to FloatingWindow.
- Pipewire service now reconnects if pipewire dies or a protocol error occurs.
- Added pipewire audio peak detection.
- Added initial support for network management.
- Added support for grabbing focus from popup windows.
- Added support for IPC signal listeners.
- Added Quickshell version checking and version gated preprocessing.
- Added a way to detect if an icon is from the system icon theme or not.
- Added vulkan support to screencopy.
- Added generic WindowManager interface implementing ext-workspace.
- Added ext-background-effect window blur support.
## Other Changes
- FreeBSD is now partially supported.
- IPC operations filter available instances to the current display connection by default.
- PwNodeLinkTracker ignores sound level monitoring programs.
- Replaced breakpad with cpptrace.
- Reloads are prevented if no file content has changed.
- Added `QS_DISABLE_FILE_WATCHER` environment variable to disable file watching.
- Added `QS_DISABLE_CRASH_HANDLER` environment variable to disable crash handling.
- Added `QS_CRASHREPORT_URL` environment variable to allow overriding the crash reporter link.
- Added `AppId` pragma and `QS_APP_ID` environment variable to allow overriding the desktop application ID.
## Bug Fixes
- Fixed volume control breaking with pipewire pro audio mode.
- Fixed volume control breaking with bluez streams and potentially others.
- Fixed volume control breaking for devices without route definitions.
- Fixed escape sequence handling in desktop entries.
- Fixed volumes not initializing if a pipewire device was already loaded before its node.
- Fixed hyprland active toplevel not resetting after window closes.
- Fixed hyprland ipc window names and titles being reversed.
- Fixed a hyprland ipc crash when refreshing toplevels before workspaces.
- Fixed missing signals for system tray item title and description updates.
- Fixed asynchronous loaders not working after reload.
- Fixed asynchronous loaders not working before window creation.
- Fixed memory leak in IPC handlers.
- Fixed ClippingRectangle related crashes.
- Fixed crashes when monitors are unplugged.
- Fixed crashes when default pipewire devices are lost.
- Fixed ToplevelManager not clearing activeToplevel on deactivation.
- Desktop action order is now preserved.
- Fixed partial socket reads in greetd and hyprland on slow machines.
- Worked around Qt bug causing crashes when plugging and unplugging monitors.
- Fixed HyprlandFocusGrab crashing if windows were destroyed after being passed to it.
## Packaging Changes
- `glib` and `polkit` have been added as dependencies when compiling with polkit agent support.
- `vulkan-headers` has been added as a build-time dependency for screencopy (Vulkan backend support).
- `breakpad` has been replaced by `cpptrace`, which is far easier to package, and the `CRASH_REPORTER` cmake variable has been replaced with `CRASH_HANDLER` to stop this from being easy to ignore.
- `DISTRIBUTOR_DEBUGINFO_AVAILABLE` was removed as it is no longer important without breakpad.
- `libdrm` is now unconditionally required as a direct dependency.
