[CLOSED] F-droid client can't find any app in gitlab repo

I have setup a fdroid repo in gitlab

my client is showing the connection is fine, but under number of aplication it’s 0

do we have an example for the right entries / setup in config.yml ?

Try this https://gitlab.com/harvey186/apps/-/raw/main/fdroid/repo/

There are presumably a handful of forks there, where are their source codes?


Also I want to formerly inform you that your fork of my Mulch here is in direct violation of the license: LeOS / LeOSium · GitLab

You’re mixing GPL-2.0-only code with GPL-3.0-only code.

https://gitlab.com/harvey186/apps/-/raw/main/fdroid/repo/ doesn’t change anything

"Also I want to formerly inform you that your fork of my Mulch here is in direct violation of the license: " this I can’t understand. I’m using patches from them, or better I’m using the build script from them and the patches from graphene which they are also using.

The Vanadium patches are GPL-2.0-only.
The Bromite patches are GPL-3.0-only.

Those licenses are NOT compatible, you cannot mix them.


Also that is strange, I think there may be another raw link that may work, give me a moment.
try this one? https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LeOS-GSI/repo/master/fdroid/repo

that’s a github link and I’m looking for the GITLAB link

Does the Gitlab work at least once? Or does it never succeed?

It may successfully fetch the initial list but see the default url and rewrite itself?

I do think gitlab pages are necessary for Gitlab to work per comment here:

as you can see in the screenshot, the f-droid client is finding the repo, but not the apps.

But we can stop here. I will remove the repo and will stay on my github repo. that is already working. ,

Thx for trying the help. But it seems, that noone really knows how to setup the repo in gitlab
