Inclusion to F-Droid? #116

Closed ClockGen closed 5 years ago

ClockGen commented 6 years ago

F-Droid is a catalogue of free and open source software and is mainly aimed at people who value their privacy and don't want to rely on proprietary services and apps like google, amazon, etc. Status is an awesome app and would definitely fit in the repository. Inclusion policy requires consent of the developer. If you support the idea, I'll fill the inclusion form.

Sure, I don't have any problem with it. How do you handle updates? Are they created automatically when I make a new release on github, or do I need to create them through the site somehow?

ClockGen commented 6 years ago

Yes, they are automatically checked. More information is here. https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Build_Metadata_Reference/#Update-Check-Mode https://f-droid.org/en/docs/FAQ_-_App_Developers/#do-i-need-to-tell-you-when-i-update

There is a comment: This app requires the me.drozdzynski.library.steppers library but I'm not sure where it gets it from or what version it needs.

Can you please add these informations to your README.md or answer in the fdroid issue?

fennifith commented 6 years ago

@Perflyst sure, it's from drozdzynski/Steppers. I'll put this in the fdroid issue as well. Pretty sure this is known already from #129 though.

Thanks, to fix the problem and to be able to submit it to F-Droid you need to release a new version due to the build servers only look at the github version tags.
