Cockpit is the modern Linux admin interface. We release regularly. Here
are the release notes from version 152.

Add Applications page
---------------------

This version introduces the "Applications" tool page. This is an extension
point for third-party software to add themselves to the Cockpit interface, by
shipping appropriate AppStream metadata.

Note that at the moment there are no real Cockpit applications available yet.
For testing this feature on Fedora, Marius Vollmer provides a
COPR repository that can be enabled with these commands:

    dnf copr enable mvo/cockpit-app-freeipa
    dnf install appstream-data-mvo

Add automatic update configuration for dnf to Software Updates
--------------------------------------------------------------

On Fedora ≥ 26, the Software Updates page now offers to enable and configure
[dnf-automatic](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/AutoUpdates) for automatic daily
or weekly updates.

For now this is only shown if the `dnf-automatic` package is already installed.
Future Cockpit versions will install that on demand, and also cover
Debian/Ubuntu systems.

Fix cockpit-bridge crash if /etc/os-release does not exist
----------------------------------------------------------

Some environments (particularly Docker containers) might not have an
/etc/os-release file, which cockpit-bridge previously required.

Change: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/pull/7751
