Changing package name and building locally using src.next source code #580

Hey guys.

https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src seems to be not updated and has some old codes when compared with Kiwi SRC.Next

Is it possible to change package name in kiwibrowser/src.next and build it locally/cloud?

Kiwi next is the current Kiwi Browser. Kiwi src is the old Kiwi classic needed for very old Android version. But yes it's confusing the first time

@gnadelwartz But how can we change the package name by building them locally? Do u think it is possible since most of the kiwi next is based upon on online compiling on top of chromium?

gnadelwartz commented 2 years ago

Kiwi next ist build from ground to work this way. In theory you can manually first check out chromium and then apply kiwi.next on top by manually run the online script. But this is not tested and not intended.

I will give a try to this and post it about this here later. Coz if we are adding many features, I think we have to append/remove many files and Kiwi.src next won't be helpful in this case.
