 mimi89999 | Actually, apksig says that shis flag means something else | 16:52:46 |

| mimi89999 | UTF-8 character encoding used for entry name | 16:52:53 |
 _hc | yeah, ZIP flags are a wierd world | 17:15:08 |
| mimi89999 | Next issue is that they have stronger compression | 17:18:27 |
| mimi89999 | I'm like WTF? | 17:18:41 |
| mimi89999 | How can we get the same compression level using a different lib than the one apksig is using? | 17:36:17 |
| _hc | I'm not sure that compression is deterministic, it might have a random elemnet | 18:02:30 |
| mimi89999 | Maybe a lib is deterministic, but not cross-lib. | 18:13:43 |
 est31 | compression libraries like zlib are deterministic | 23:55:05 |
| est31 | otherwise reproducible builds wouldn't work at all | 23:55:14 |
| est31 | but cross lib compression fails indeed | 23:55:28 |

| mimi89999 | Currently my idea is to use apksig's own code. | 06:35:54 |
| mimi89999 | BTW, why was PNG compression not reproducible? | 06:37:16 |
| mimi89999 | Could somebody else continue work on this (write a util based on apksig to copy signatures) | 08:06:11 |

 Hardcore Sushi | Hi ! I finally decided to try the fdroidserver to publish my app. Does the build server support golang compilation or I have to install it in metadata build instructions ?
Here is my metadata file: https://bin.disroot.org/?fd7f72ec60a18fa9#FTJRXKBh1nEnh2BoDtz1ARHEuXCYg7sKu5YcFYyfE2pj
And here is my build script for building the golang library: https://github.com/hardcore-sushi/DroidFS/blob/master/app/libgocryptfs/build.sh
Also, are the paths to ndk binaries correct on the build server ? | 09:17:17 |

 Bubu | I'll udpate the f-droid forum in a few minutes | 11:43:58 |
| Bubu | all done | 12:03:35 |
| _hc | thanks! | 12:31:44 |
| _hc | Bubu: FYI I found the buildserver setup that is using NFS sharing, e.g. synced_folder_type = 'nfs'. Its verification. | 12:32:29 |
| _hc | Hardcore Sushi: for golang, you'll need to include the install steps in your build recipe in the metadata file. Perhaps there are some apps that have already done it that you can take from | 12:33:29 |
| _hc | the VM is stretch-backports so the Debian package is likely too old | 12:33:51 |
| Hardcore Sushi | OK thanks, I will do that | 12:34:29 |
| _hc | I think you can use ANDROID_NDK_HOME or whatever env var is called in order to find the ndk | 12:34:30 |
| _hc | mimi89999: PNG crunching is not reproducible since it randomly tries things, then choose the best result. | 12:35:04 |
| Hardcore Sushi | Yes but I need the binary file like: $ANDROID_NDK_HOME/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.9/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin | 12:35:05 |
