Boxes 3.5.91



Hi everyone,

We are pleased to announce a new (unstable) release of Boxes.

Changes since 3.5.90:

- Download OS logos on demand instead of shipping them in gnome-boxes or
  in a non-free package.
- Allow to customize box memory and maximum disk size before creating it.
- More responsive box removals.
- Make stopped/saved boxes easier to distinguish. Saved boxes show a
  grayed out thumbnail of their display and stopped boxes show a black
  screen.
- Add the ability to use an additional ISO with extra Windows drivers for
  use during unattended installs. For now, Boxes can use it to install
  the Windows system to a virtio disk. It also needs to be made available
  manually (this will be improved at a later point), 'make win-tools.iso'
  can be used to download it,
  http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-boxes/commit/?id=af09bc77c5 explains
  what to do with it.
- Tweak auto-hiding of fullscreen toolbar.
- Improve box display scaling (when using a very recent spice-gtk).
- Various UI fixes and improvements.

- Added/updated translations:
  - Assamese
  - Galician
  - Greek
  - Hebrew
  - Lithuanian
  - Norwegian bokmål
  - Polish
  - Russian
  - Simplified Chinese (zh_CN)
  - Spanish
  - Traditional Chinese (Hong Kong and Taiwan)
  - Vietnamese
