F-Droid Archive repo crash

Hello,

I sometime dig up old or even ancient Android devices that I try to update as much as possible. I’ve recently got my hands on a Samsung Galaxy Core Prime running Android 5.1.1.

Following Running on old Android versions | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository , I’ve installed the latest certificates, then F-Droid 1.15.6.

However, when I try to activate then sync the official F-Droid Archive repo, the app crashes when I reach 37.8 MiB/66.1 MiB (or 43.6 MiB/66.1 MiB).

Also, F-Droid Classic hangs/crashes at the same time.

If memory serves, this is a bug that happened in the past got eventually got corrected… in a later version that I cannot install (EDIT: Fdroid crashes when downloading app list from archive repos, and other problems )
