0.14.49 (latest for Android right now) has hang bug

[ghost]

It appears that the Android fork is still on 0.14.49 even though it has this showstopper bug that basically made the app useless for me half a month ago with no workaround that I'd know off: https://forum.syncthing.net/t/oneother-item-stuck-in-out-of-sync-items/11938

I assume this is a volunteer effort, so I just wanted to point this issue with the currently shipped version in case you weren't aware. (and that a syncthing core version bump would be super helpful if you find the time to squeeze it in whatever the regular release schedule is)

Version Information

App Version: 0.10.13
Syncthing Version: v0.14.49
Android Version: LineageOS 14.1

Since there still doesn't seem to be an update in f-droid and this has been broken for many months, I don't see many other options for me than to move to another software... :cry: kind of sucks, syncthing is pretty neat

@licaon-kter any ideas why fdroid is still on 0.10.13? It seems 0.10.14 is in the metadata https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/blob/master/metadata/com.nutomic.syncthingandroid.txt#L698

@JonasT I can only suggest trying to download the APK from gplay. There is also a beta release with fixes backported from the fork.

The problem is #1047 and their build server not having go1.9 anymore. We really need to find the cause of that (well, create a reproducer to report upstream). I tried a one or two months ago and gave up after failing a few times... Probably go1.9 needs to be built as part of the fdroid build process. Should be doable, I'll have a look.

There is already a solution for it on @Catfriend1's fork, so I submitted a merge request with the same solution at fdroid: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/merge_requests/3767

@imsodin I was doing the same, thanks for being quicker ;)

[AudriusButkevicius]

How do we even know that there are build failures in fdroid? I googled fdroid build server but found nothing.

Closing. If bad stuff still happens, scream.
