Do you mind if I write a request to be added to F-Droid?

Hm, basically waiting for CAPod to be approved, which is waiting on someone from F-Droid for review: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/2222#note_1116255404
CAPod uses the same new build script that generates a VERSION file that F-Droid can parse for automatic builds: https://github.com/d4rken-org/permission-pilot/blob/main/VERSION
Once that is working, the same script could be used for all my apps to get automatic builds on f-droid.
@d4rken for myperms, we have an issue concerning updates. Our update checker only parses the build.gradle using regular expressions, so variables or function calls do not work. Which means we need versionCode and versionName available literally (which they are currently not) – ideally in the place just pointed to, but if you prefer you could also have that defined when making a release by writing it e.g. to a version.txt, for example using the same syntax as Flutter does (version: <versionName>+<versionCode>). Could that be done?
Permission Pilot uses the same release script as CAPod, and creates a VERSION file: https://github.com/d4rken-org/permission-pilot/blob/main/VERSION
Could the same solution from CAPod be used here too?
Yes, sure! That's what I meant by "as Flutter does". A + or a space as separator – as long as you don't have spaces in your versionName that should not matter at all :smile: Just let us know once it's there, and where to look for it (ideally in the RFP), and we'll pick it up.
@IzzySoft Permission Pilot already uses the same scheme as CAPod, the VERSION file is available. https://github.com/d4rken-org/permission-pilot/blob/main/VERSION
What is the blocker here? Did I forget some tweak that I did in CAPod and didn't do here? 🤔
