[SOLVED] Fdroid as system app

[Volker_Weissmann]

Hello,
I’ve installed org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged and org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota_2110 . I then used TWRP to install
/data/data/org.fdroid.fdroid/ota/org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota_2110.zip
If I try to update an app, it says

Error installing SkyTube
The privileged permissions have not been granted to the extension! Please create a bug report!

What ROM? Android version? Can you use Magisk and the corresponding module instead?

[Volker_Weissmann]

Lineage OS, Oneplus 3, Android 10.

Can you use Magisk and the corresponding module instead?

How do I do that? I do have Magisk installed, but not Supersu or something similar.

(uninstall whatever you have now first)

Magisk modules → search f-droid → install → reboot

Magisk has it’s own SUperuser thing, BUT F-Droid does not use root, so you don’t need to enable that.

Do you know the filepath?

[Licaon_Kter]

Path of what?

[Volker_Weissmann]

Aren’t I supposed to enter the filepath of the F-Droid magisk module?
The magisk → modules page looks like this:

If I click on the “+”, I get this:

Download modules…one menu entry lower
