An f-droid release? :) #10

Closed kuba-orlik closed 7 years ago

kuba-orlik commented 7 years ago

Hi! I'd like to check out the app, but I don't have Google Play Services. Could you provide the built .apk as a part of the GitHub "release" or (better yet) publish the app on F-Droid? :)

Release added here: https://github.com/wizmer/syncorg/releases/tag/2.0.3 and F-Droid request done ;-)

On f-droid submission they say that the project

Uses an immense amount of jar files

These need to be removed before the app can be part of fdroid.

Would the be solved?

gdt commented 7 years ago

I suspect the jar issue is that f-droid wants to build from source, and a build process with already-built jars checked into git isn't entirely a build from sources.

Separately, I have the impression that syncorg might use some of the non-free Google APIs and e.g. I'm unclear on whether the dropbox api is Free Software. f-droid builds often just drop non-free dependencies.

Hi,

I am actually clueless as well about what has to be removed. I removed all the existing jars from the project (that were useless by the way) but there still exists some dependancies through Gradle and Maven. I don't know if this a problem or not. I'll try to resubmit the app to F-Droid this week.
