No idea about that. Don't Android devs sign their packages themselves (unless compiled by e.g. F-Droid from the sources, who then do the signing using their key)? I'd rather not...

@Samsua yes? That link goes here ("self-reference") :wink:

@MartinStyk maybe you go back to signing packages yourself in general (for playstore, too). If I'd develop for Android, I'd certainly not trust *any* third party with my *private* key...

Nice, eh? It's **your** private key, but it's kept from you. Guess why. (Security reasons, yeah – but whose security?)

@MartinStyk you can tell the installation source by the corresponding attribute (`-i` parameter to `pm`); in the package dump, the field is called `installerPackageName`. Playstore has two different "sources" here,...

What I do in my tool [Adebar](https://github.com/IzzySoft/Adebar) is parsing the package list returned by `dumpsys package` (starting at `^Packages:` and stopping at `^Shared users:`). And *Adebar* reports the correct installer....

@linsui I have a hard time following the discussion. What kind of exception? I cannot tell if we can use an Ubuntu Docker image to build an app (or any...

@kelson42 yes: `images/icon.png` in the corresponding locale directories. And make sure you use the correct image inside the app itself (`res/drawable*` etc). Though the `icon.png` should override what#s used by...
