Hi,

I'm happy to announce that I've just released ptxdist-2024.12.0.

This is not a very big release, but there are some interesting changes.

PTXdist now has support to automatically run in a Docker or Podman
container. The main benefit of that, compared to doing it manually, is that
PTXdist know what is needed and can mount all the relevant directories,
etc. See the documentation[1] for more details.

For Python packages, there is now a stricter dependency check for some
build-time dependencies.

The rest are mostly version bumps and a few new host-python packages and
various fixes mixed in.

Thanks to all contributors and - as always - the shortlog below.

Enjoy,
Michael Olbrich
