Inclusion in F-Droid

[Poussinou]

Hi,

Since this app is Apache v2 licensed, are you considering the fact to add it to F-Droid? There is a strong community behind, that do not use Google Play nor anything else, except F-Droid.

You can find some documentation here.

Otherwise, if you don't want to work on the inclusion of this app by yourself, would it be ok for you if someone else do it for you?

Thank you for your feedback.
Let's look at deploying applications using F-Droid.
If you need help, we will ask for your help =)

You will probably have to write a new gradle build flavor since com.google.android.gms:play-services-drive:11.8.0 is probably not FLOSS. It's not a problem if this functionality doesn't work in the F-Droid build, the users are used to that kind of things, and there is no way to circumvent it.

@hanjoongcho

implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-drive:$versions.gms"
implementation "com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:$versions.gms"

are show-stoppers. Can you provide a FOSS build-flavor that comes without those? Else I'm afraid F-Droid inclusion might not be possible.

We added a flavor setting to make it buildable, except for the gms library.

Thanks @hanjoongcho! Just reported that at our end, so hopefully it will be picked up soon.

@hanjoongcho now we have a different problem: the icons used require an account to be downloaded. No chance that we can integrate that with our build process (see here). Is there an alternative?

@IzzySoft
Added flavor settings, including five icons to replace Flatinon weather icons. =)

Wow, that was fast! Thanks a lot! I've reported this on our end and asked our "integrator" to give it another try.

I confirm it now builds correctly, thanks!
