[id="katello-headline-features"]
== Headline Features

=== Image-mode host support

Katello has added a new type of host: image-mode hosts.
Image-mode hosts are standard hosts configured to run a bootc bootable container image at startup.
Katello {KatelloVersion} allows users to assign bootable container images to an image-mode host to easily deploy identical system configurations, from basic to complex.

Existing hosts are now considered 'package-mode hosts' and will exist alongside the new host type.
Both host types can be set up and configured using existing host management processes.

Bootable container images (bootc images) can be managed similarly to existing Foreman repositories.
A new 'Booted container images' page displays all bootc images and their respective host counts.
These images are available via API at '/hosts/bootc_images'.


=== Flatpak content support

Katello now supports Flatpak content.
Flatpak content can be manually added as a local repository or can be imported from external sources as a Flatpak remote repository.
After import, Flatpak remote repositories can be mirrored to local Katello repositories via remote repository mirroring.
Flatpak repositories (local or remote) can be easily installed and synced on remote hosts via any of Katello's existing repository management techniques.
Flatpak remote repositories are available via API at `/flatpak_remotes`.


=== 'Sync Dependencies' option for Ansible collection repositories.

Ansible collection repositories now have a new option: 'Sync Dependencies'.
When enabled (default), Pulp will sync the collections given in the requirements file and their dependencies.
When disabled, Pulp will only sync the collections, without their dependencies.


=== Organization custom labels

Organizations now support the ability to use user-submitted labels during creation.


=== Allow for non-standard errata types in errata filters

Errata filtering by type now supports an additional 'other' option, letting users filter by errata types which don't match the standard 'Bugfix', 'Enhancement', or 'Security' types.


=== postgresql-evr extension no longer required

Installation of the Katello database on remote systems where root access is not available is now possible.
Only a basic PostgreSQL installation is required.
With this feature, you can now install on systems like Amazon RDS or Azure Database for PostgreSQL.


=== Rails 7.0 support

Katello has been updated to support Rails 7.0.
