 izzy | Btw: The devs of Amaze approached me personally today, asking me to list their app in my repo as F-Droid cannot update it anymore (due to the billing library). I complied, and suggested them to establish build flavors (and Fastlane). Curious how they decide. | 18:50:47 |
| izzy | Would be nice to have Amaze up-to-date at F-Droid again (well, the summary is definitely outdated ;) | 18:51:36 |
| izzy | Aw, commas saving lives, yeah… No threat. "Respond, what happens – to you not once I'm explaining everything" (I just inserted the "–", and how that changes the meaning…) | 19:04:48 |
| izzy | Spanish grammar in English sentence read by a German (chuckles) | 19:05:23 |
 mvdan | hugs to both of you. sometimes people will just be asshats online. | 20:18:24 |
 wb9688 | izzy: What even is going on there? And I find his "English" hard to parse as well, plus there's no way you could've known about that hannana or whatever branch and he was quite rude? about it and I think that you didn't do anything wrong. | 20:40:04 |
| izzy | wb9688: thanks. Guess he was having a bad time. One of their crew locked out all other devs from their repo, so they had to fork in order to continue development. Not a nice experience. So he lost temper (by the name, he can claim the pre-judice of "Spanish temper"). I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time I guess. | 21:30:15 |
| izzy | But thanks confirming I didn't mess. I was already wondering where I might have taken the wrong turn. But as for the branch (and his claiming I should have done a better job at exploring): Some projects have dozens of branches. As pointed out: he knew the facts and could have put them into two lines – instead of binding an hour of time from a volunteer to figure. | 21:33:08 |
| wb9688 | Yeah, I totally understand how he could be upset about being locked out | 21:33:33 |
| izzy | Well, I don't know what I had done in his shoes. So I'm fine with leaving it at that. He sounded cooperative now and seems to have calmed down (possibly is embarassed about the outcome ones "the brain kicked in again" and won over the blood pressure ;) | 21:34:43 |
| izzy | Shitty situation, so I won't feel offended anymore. Though I definitely felt. | 21:35:22 |
| wb9688 | Yeah, I wouldn't have a bad attitude towards him anymore as soon as he calms down, as that's really a shitty situation | 21:38:44 |

| wb9688 | Bubu: I installed fdroidserver from Debian's repo, but I'm getting "OSError while trying to execute /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gradlew-fdroid clean: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gradlew-fdroid'" | 14:09:17 |
| wb9688 | Of course setting gradle in config.py to something else works, but I think it should just work out of the box when I install it from my distro. "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gradlew-fdroid" doesn't exist in any Debian package | 14:15:51 |
| wb9688 | What would be the way to locally verify that F-Droid could successfully build it with my (well, theSchabi's) signature? | 14:24:38 |
 Bubu | wb9688: that sounds like the same packaging problem as this on arch: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidserver/-/issues/679 | 14:26:07 |
| wb9688 | Sounds like the same problem indeed | 14:26:53 |
| Bubu | _hc: is doing the debian package I think | 14:27:09 |
| Bubu | Or someone could look into fixing the underlying python packaging problem | 14:27:47 |
 _hc | wb9688: currently no one is supporting fdroid build from any packages. fdroidserver from git works. | 14:29:18 |
| _hc | this work is non-trivial and touches essential, brittle, and untested parts of the code | 14:30:16 |
| _hc | i.e. no test coverage | 14:30:25 |
| Bubu | wb9688: just running fdroid build <appid> should work, but you'd get more accurate results with a buildserver setup | 14:31:50 |
| wb9688 | Does fdroid build sign it using dev signature? | 14:36:25 |
| _hc | fdroid build does not sign | 14:36:57 |
| wb9688 | Well, that's what I was asking for and I thought that as well | 14:37:35 |
| _hc | any objections if I make fdroidclient 1.9 the CV? | 14:37:37 |
| _hc | there were only 4 crash reports for it, two duplicates | 14:39:54 |
| _hc | which is good for an alpha release | 14:40:01 |
| _hc | quite good | 14:40:04 |
