There is no API or ABI guarantee, although we are doing our\nbest to provide stability. Documentation for the API is available with\ngtk-doc.\n\nYou may download updates to the package from [download.gnome.org](https://download.gnome.org/sources/gnome-desktop/).\n\nTo discuss gnome-desktop, you may use the Platform group of [GNOME's\nDiscourse instance](https://discourse.gnome.org/c/platform/5).\n\nInstallation\n============\n\ngnome-desktop uses [meson](https://mesonbuild.com/Quick-guide.html#compiling-a-meson-project) to build its sources.\n\n[Bubblewrap](https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap), installed as the\nbwrap binary, is a non-optional dependency on platforms where it is\nsupported and thumbnailing will silently fail when it is not installed\nat runtime.\n\n[flatpak-xdg-utils](https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak-xdg-utils/)'s `flatpak-spawn`\nhelper is a non-optional dependency for using gnome-desktop's thumbnailer\nwhen the app is being run within Flatpak \u003e= 1.5.1.\n\nHow to report bugs\n==================\n\nBugs should be reported to the [Issues section of gnome-desktop repository](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-desktop/-/issues).\nDue to very high numbers of misdirected gnome-shell bugs, the issue tracker has\nunfortunately been restricted to GNOME developers only. If you have found a bug in\nthis library, feel free to contact any GNOME developer and ask for your report to be\nforwarded here.\n\nThumbnailing sandboxing\n=======================\n\nThe thumbnailer sandboxing was built to prevent a number of different\npotential attack vectors.\n\n- The attacker wants to steal arbitrary secrets from your machine (a\n  confidentiality failure), or overwrite arbitrary files (an integrity\n  failure).\n- The attacker is assumed to be capable of inducing you to download a\n  crafted thumbnailable object (picture, video, ROM) that will crash a\n  thumbnailer and get arbitrary code execution.\n- Stealing your secrets is prevented by:\n  - only giving the thumbnailer access to the file it's thumbnailing,\n    plus public files from `/usr`-equivalent places, so that it can't\n    leak the content of a secret file into the thumbnail of a less-secret\n    file.\n  - not giving it internet access, so that it can't upload the file it's\n    thumbnailing to Wikileaks.\n- Overwriting arbitrary files is prevented by making the output of the\n  thumbnailer the only thing that can be written from inside the sandbox.\n- Subverting other programs to do one of those is (hopefully) prevented by only\n  allowing it to output PNG thumbnails, because we hope PNG reader libraries are\n  a lot more secure than libraries to read exotic image formats.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgnome%2Fgnome-desktop","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgnome%2Fgnome-desktop","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgnome%2Fgnome-desktop/lists"}
