Sure, we can try to add this. If you file a pull request, I think it would be happily merged.

Please note that this is not possible for already published app. Enabling reproducible build will change signing key, unless you can somehow obtain current F-Droid key.

Alright, thanks for the info! Closing then.

Sorry, I may have remembered incorrectly:

• There is no way for existing app to change signing key
• The is a way to have two APKs on F-Droid for each version - one signed by developer key, other by F-Droid key. But it doesn't support automatic updates.

But first hurdle is reproducible build. When listing AVNC on F-Droid, I tried to go this route, but could not get my APK to match with F-Droid. Main issue is native libraries, especially the SSL library.

Anyway, if someone steps up with a working version and a PR, this can be merged.

You can enable reproducible builds for an existing app, there are two approaches on F-Droid with reproducible builds:

• only publish with the upstream signer
• publish both with the upstream signer and f-droid.org signer
