fdroid updates stalled

[sn0wD4N]

After installing the Shizuku Fdroid Privileged Extension, it is impossible to install updates as they keep on going forever in "Downloading and Installing" status in the app and in the notification bar as well.

Hi, I also experience this issue but unfortunately the problem is with F-Droid. You may have noticed it sometimes gets killed during the download and it leaves a halfway filled download progress bar.

I'll try to troubleshoot it at some point cause it's indeed annoying.

I'm having this same issue on a Galaxy A53 and I would be happy to help in troubleshooting if there's anything I can provide there

For me, it never gets killed during the download. The download always succeeds but the update installation always freezes up.

Hi, what you say is correct and it's really annoying. It's in my backlog but I haven't had the time, energy or willpower to actually fully troubleshoot and fix it.

I'll do it at some point, it's in my backlog, sorry about that. If anyone wants to go ahead and attempt to fix it themselves I don't think it should be too hard, I think you can reproduce it by just downgrading an app somehow then trying to upgrade it.

Hey, don't know if it will help or not but here's a chunk of my adb logcat from trying to update with the extension:

this looks to be maybe relevant, the logs near the bottom are referencing write errors from the package installer.
