Publish on F-Droid

Feature Request

Problem Description

Since I don't use Google Play (and don't want to), I would like to have Mobileraker published on F-Droid This would enable (auto-)updates for users without the google play store

Proposed Solution

Mobileraker would be added to the F-Droid repository, making it available via the F-Droid client apps. To make an app available in the official repo, one creates a merge request (if the original app author does not oppose the inclusion, of course) on the Fdroiddata gitlab repository. Any issues (e.g. packaging, unclear licenses, maybe enabling reproducible builds, etc.) would be checked against and solved in this MR. An even easier option would be to include the app in the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repository, which is a large, unofficial f-droid repo with less strict inclusion policies.

Alternatives Considered

Alternatives would be using google play (if available) or manually building/downloading the apk

Additional Context

Having worked with F-Droid and its repo before, I am of course willing to help:)

There were several discussion about this already. Tl;Dr; Due to my licensing and used packages, there currently is no way to publish it to F-Droid.

If you still want to try it you can open a PR on the respective repos.
