+* **[detiam]** fix linking errors when building on archlinux
+* **[detiam]** optimize Linux deps build script:
+  - new argument `-packages_skip`: allows skipping installation of distro packages, such as `build-essential`, `gcc-multilib`, etc...
+  - the above command introduced the ability to run without root
+  - if the script was ran without root, and `-packages_skip` wasn't specified,  
+    the script will attempt to detect and use the built-in tool `sudo` if it was available
+* for windows: updated stub drm patterns and added a workaround for older variants,  
+  this increases the compatibility, but makes it easier to be detected
 * added missing example file `disable_lobby_creation.txt` in `steam_settings` folder + updated release `README`
 * allow overlay invitations to obscure game input to be able to accept/reject the request
