We’d like to have TWIF up and running again. It is important as a means of getting the community and the world up to speed on what is happening in the world of F-Droid.
If you’d like for something to appear on TWIF, please suggest it here.
The rules are simple, please post your updates on this thread before Thursday 0000 UTC every week.
If the deadline is missed, it’ll either be in next week’s TWIF, or possibly not at all if the information is already outdated by then.
If I your submission, I’ve seen it and added it to my notes. There’s no guarantee it’ll make the final cut, though.
Thanks for this. \o/ . I’ll check on how to incorporate this on the TWIF for all apps.
Also, @danialbehzadi Thanks for raising the concern that details should be for downgrades and upgrades. I think it is a great idea.
Looks like there is no TWiF post this week… For the next week:
This week we updated and patched some apps for the 0day in libwebp. Please update them as soon as possible:
org.telegram.messenger
org.godotengine.editor.v3
org.documentfoundation.libreoffice
nekox.messenger
de.spiritcroc.riotx
org.sajeg.fallingblocks
com.foobnix.pro.pdf.reader
org.documentfoundation.libreoffice
More apps will be fixed in the future so please keep an eye on the Updates tab warnings notices. There are still many apps using the libwebp from Android system. If your system hasn’t got the fix yet then you may be still in danger. You should check them by yourself and we can’t fix that from our side.
Krita has released a new version with the fix but I can’t get it built correctly yet. You can switch to the upstream build (non-foss libs included) meanwhile. If you keep using the old versions please be careful don’t open untrusted webp pictures.
I meant the apps using system libwebp… If an app is affected and the system is not updated, the user should be careful and maybe stop using the app.
By the way, this thread is going to be too long and it’s hard to find TWiF items… That’s why I thought it’s better to open an issue for every TWiF on GitLab. Then we can discuss a TWiF item in the thread.
Not much of an update, but the revival of the RadioDroid project as such after a long time.
Apart from that, one question. I am trying to find for the TWIF the below 2 things:
Community News & Removed Apps
Where can I find these details? For Removed Apps, I tried searching in f-droid monitor, but I could not understand which one relates to this. Is this the same as “disabled apps”?
Also, same for the community news. Where can that be found? Is it the same under “News” section, where if anything is available for the week in run?
Yeah, that is true for the news.
For the removed ones, I thought those would be disabled apps as well, right? Or do they fall under some other category?
your submission, I’ve seen it and added it to my notes. There’s no guarantee it’ll make the final cut, though.
