LibreSignal 3.16.0 about to expire #25

Closed nicolasmueller closed 8 years ago

nicolasmueller commented 8 years ago

My installation of LibreSignal 3.16.0 from https://eutopia.cz/fdroid/repo tells me that it will expire in 7 days. This issue was present in Signal 3.16.0 and is solved in Signal 3.16.1, so it would be good if the new upstream release would be used.

Thanks for your builds anyway!

I pulled the version bump from upstream to the LibreSignal repo.

nicolasmueller commented 8 years ago

This doesn't soolve this issue because I'm relying on the independent builds of Signal by @xmikos in the main repo of https://eutopia.cz/froid (I'm using Signal with microg to replace Google Play) Now it's only 4 days till it will expire. Is this repository abandoned, or will updates be published?

xmikos commented 8 years ago

It is not abandoned, I will release new builds this evening or tomorrow. Sorry for delay, vacation :-)

nicolasmueller commented 8 years ago

@xmikos : now it's only one day.. If it's not updated very soon, I will build my own version of Signal and not use or recommend the repo again. Thanks for providing it, while it lasted.

@xmikos Is there anything I could do to help? I'm also relying on the fdroid main repo and waiting desperately for the update :) Unfortunately I don't have experience with building android apps myself.

@nicolasmueller me too I had used this repo for LibreSignal and I had problems with the updates. Me too I'm using microg and I decided to install the blankstore instead of the fakestore to use the original version of Signal. You can use oandbackup to backup the data of LibreSignal and to restore them after installing Signal.

xmikos commented 8 years ago

@nicolasmueller @tecufanujacu Sorry, too little time recently :-( But new version is finally uploaded.

Nevertheless this version age check in Signal is really stupid, there is nothing (not a single line) new in version 3.16.1 in comparison with 3.16.0. It has been released solely to reset countdown timer...

mimi89999 commented 8 years ago

I could change that, but I don't think it makes any sense since LibreSignal won't be continued.

xmikos commented 8 years ago

@mimi89999 Yes, it doesn't make much sense now to change that now that LibreSignal (WebSocket fork) is EOL. And my version in main repository is built from original Signal sources, so I can't (and don't want to) change it even there.
