Seafoam Labs released Shelly ALPM v3.0.6 on August 14, 2026, focusing on code quality improvements rather than new features, including the integration of Valgrind into the CI pipeline and fixing memory leaks. The release addresses handling issues with .desktop files and submenu IDs for better desktop environment compatibility, following a major overhaul in the previous month that transitioned the project to a Zig-based architecture. The update includes contributions from five developers, notably adding a Valgrind build step and enhancing memory analysis capabilities while also improving the functionality of the .desktop file in GNOME and KDE Plasma. This maintenance release emphasizes memory hygiene over feature expansion, making it a reliable update for users of the package manager

Seafoam Labs released Shelly ALPM v3.0.6 on August 14, 2026, with a maintenance build that prioritizes code quality over new features. The update integrates Valgrind into the CI pipeline, patches the small heap leaks it uncovered, and corrects .desktop file and submenu ID handling for cleaner desktop environment integration. This patch follows the project's massive v3.0.0 overhaul in late July, which stripped the C# and .NET backend to rebuild the core, CLI, GTK4 frontend, and keyring natively in Zig.
