I use obtainium package-manager. It grabs the apk directly from github and checks, if new releases arrived.
Because of f-droid doesn't give me the current versions.
@xundeenergie ...because the app does not currently build in a reproducible way.
F-Droid would love to host the latest version, but verification fails.
Ok.
But, if i want to use the latest release... i have to download it manually from github... obtainium will check and do this for me. :)
It is resolved, 0.7.2 was just built and awaits the cycle to end and be published.
Whcih means that F-Droid is trailing releases as expected.
@K4LCIFER can you read my post again?
Then read: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/wiki/-/wikis/FAQ#how-long-does-it-take-for-my-app-to-show-up-on-website-and-client
Ah okay! Noted. My bad.
Side note, is it possible to see the actual build output? I did a cursory look on GitLab, but I didn't find anything.
