FreePaint (likely) has issues building on F-Droid #15

Closed pastthepixels closed 1 year ago

I'm not an F-Droid developer/maintainer so I can't say for sure if the program can't build, or even if it's a problem with FreePaint, but I'm opening this issue anyway because it very likely is.

14 suggests that it's an issue arising from the fact that I lost my old key, decided it was for debugging anyway, and signed 1.1.0 with a new key. Apparently best practice states that you should provide a version of a previous release with the new key (or current release with the old key), but ultimately F-Droid maintainers have to do some work to allow new builds to be checked against the new key.

I've provided a version of 1.0.2 with the new key to make things easier, but I'm leaving this up because there might have been something I have forgotten that's causing the app to still not build.

Another fix that was suggested by F-Droid was to sign all commits. I've just set that up now, so each commit should have a verifed tick next to it

Update: it is in fact not an issue with anything else in my code, but the fact that I lost my old key. If anyone lands on this issue I would like to direct you to #14 instead. Thanks!
