+ ### Fixed
9

10
+ - **`Meta.tsx`'s `useSoleMetaOwnership` no longer runs on every render.**
11
+ It fired on every render of every `<Meta>` usage (136 call sites, no
12
+ dependency array) and directly removed `<head>` children via raw DOM
13
+ `.remove()` calls each time. The duplicate-tag problem it exists for -
14
+ React's `createRoot` not reconciling against tags baked into the
15
+ prerendered static HTML - can only exist before React's first render;
16
+ every render after that, `<title>`/`<meta>`/`<link>` in `<head>` are
17
+ exclusively React 19's own hoisting mechanism's doing, and it already
18
+ correctly swaps them out as components mount/unmount with no help
19
+ needed. Re-running this raw removal on every navigation instead raced
20
+ that hoisting: it could delete a node mid-transition that React's own
21
+ reconciler still held a reference to, and the next time React tried to
22
+ remove or replace that now-detached node, `parentNode` was null and it
23
+ threw an uncaught `TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading
24
+ 'removeChild')` - not render-phase, so no `ErrorBoundary` catches it,
25
+ silently aborting whatever navigation was in flight (URL updates,
26
+ page never re-renders). This is the actual root cause of the frozen-
27
+ navigation bug worked around piecemeal in `@autobusal/providers`
28
+ 1.6.6-1.6.8, `@autobusal/hooks` 1.3.1, and `@autobusal/auth`
29
+ 1.5.2-1.5.4 - all of which targeted `GoogleReCaptchaProvider` as a
30
+ contributing trigger, but the crash reproduced identically with that
31
+ provider removed entirely, on ~any route rendering `<Meta>`. Now
32
+ scoped to a module-level flag so the cleanup runs exactly once, on the
33
+ app's first `<Meta>` mount - it does its one real job (wiping stale
34
+ prerendered tags before first paint) and never touches the DOM again.
35
+
36
+ ## [1.8.2] - 2026-07-30
37
+
38
+ ### Fixed
39
+
40
+ - **`Meta.tsx` duplicate description/canonical/OG/Twitter tags.** The
41
+ existing title-only dedup (`useSoleTitleOwnership`, since 1.5.1) is now
42
+ `useSoleMetaOwnership` and covers every tag Meta renders, not just
43
+ `<title>`. Surfaced by the new build-time prerender step: React doesn't
44
+ reconcile against tags already sitting in `<head>` from a source other
45
+ than its own current render (a prerendered snapshot's baked-in
46
+ description, a leftover from a pre-locale-detection render, ...), so
47
+ multiple `<meta name="description">`/`og:description`/etc could coexist
48
+ - crawlers commonly read the FIRST occurrence, which could be the stale
49
+ one, not the page's real content.
