@CCTG it is the state's app? Official?

@sphyphes @CCTG As per the description, this is not an "official" build, but a compatible fork (that possibly and hopefully will be upstreamed one day).

@CCTG
Thanks a lot!
Do you need additional uplink capacity? The download is slow

@sp1rit Do you have microg installed? This error occurs when a too old version of microg is installed, please try updating it.

@CCTG @sp1rit btw, which microg version should be installed? Is 0.2.13 too old?

@CCTG @beedaddy yeah, I was running microG 0.2.12 and fdroid doesn't like updating gmscore

@sp1rit @CCTG @beedaddy there are several Methodes. Straight forward: disable f-droid repository, keep microG repository.

@Kurt @CCTG @beedaddy thats what I did. Yet it complains that it is signed incorrectly (might be the fault of signature spoofing). So I had to uninstall it via App Manager ( f-droid.org/packages/io.github ) and install the application again.

@sp1rit @CCTG @beedaddy oops. MicroG from a different source?

@CCTG I thought the app comes more or less standalone (bringing its own implementation of the necessary functions). But apparently it makes use of existing (microg) functions, right?

@astronav If microg is installed, the app will try to use that externally. It will, however, also work when microg is uninstalled.
