Provide pure-floss build flavor

[ghost]

This app includes Google's proprietary play-services depedency, what is it used for? Could you provide a pure-floss gradle flavor that does not require this (e.g. by stripping functionality or using floss alternatives)?

@krt16s it is used (optionally, not on by default) for GCM notifications, see #37.

is this a blocker for fdroid inclusion (#36)?

Gradle checks dependency before building, so it will try to find play-services and fail, because we dont have it on the buildserver. I can try to sort things out on our end, but having two separate build flavours is most likely the cleanest way to do it.

I'll be creating two different builds of the application this summer as part of the v0.4.2 release.

This is really appreciated! Many thanks!

[anarcat]

any word on that 0.4.2 release? can't wait!

I've created a special fdroid branch and removed the GCM and billing deps from that branch.

Thanks, should build tonight: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/commit/cba5e67c

@krt16s: You might want to remove push notifications from the app description, since the F-Droid version doesn't actually have those (no GCM).

[ghost]

You are right, should be fixed tomorrow.

@krt16s: You'll also probably want to remove that last "and".
