📄 Description

Adds the pm-26340-linux-biometrics-v2 feature flag to the supported client feature flags allowlist.

Bitwarden's desktop client rewrote Linux biometric (polkit) unlock as a v2 implementation gated behind the pm-26340-linux-biometrics-v2 LaunchDarkly flag (client constant LinuxBiometricsV2 in libs/common/src/enums/feature-flag.enum.ts; introduced in bitwarden/clients PRs #16660 / #16661). On recent desktop builds the "Unlock with biometrics" option is hidden on Linux unless the server advertises this flag via /api/config, so self-hosted users can no longer enable fingerprint/polkit unlock.

This mirrors the Windows equivalent added in #6468 (pm-25373-windows-biometrics-v2): a one-line addition to SUPPORTED_FEATURE_FLAGS plus the matching .env.template documentation. After this, setting EXPERIMENTAL_CLIENT_FEATURE_FLAGS=pm-26340-linux-biometrics-v2 lets the Linux desktop client expose biometric unlock again.

Available since Desktop 2025.11.0.
