Lawnchair: Add to F-Droid repository

[frauhottelmann]

Hi, keeping the app up to date would be very easy if you submit it to f-droid: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/issues

"F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform. The client makes it easy to browse, install, and keep track of updates on your device."

In order to complies with F-Droid's inclusion citeria, Lawnchair's devs need to provide f-droid build flavor without non-free dependencies like Google Play Services.

I can't wait to see this land in F-droid!

It runs fine on my devices without g-apps. So it should be no problem to build it without using non-free libraries...

Runs well for me on my non-gapps phone (microG installed)

The GApps requirement only looks like it is only for AwarenessWeather. It shouldn't too difficult to exclude this for an fdroid build. The Microsoft Analytics looks like it would be a larger issue.

We seem to have a good progress building FOSS version, see

@deletescape , @paphonb , developers, I just wanted to be sure you don't
mind adding Lawnchair to F-Droid. Thanks!

Guys? Yes is yes, no is no.
In the meanwhile OpenLauncher earns new users on F-Droid 😀

Can we get an update on fdroid release status?

[deletescape]

Yes, Lawnchair can be added to F-Droid (previously discussed with @ildar via email)

[fonix232]

@deletescape Please review PR #806, and if all's good, we should merge & release to F-Droid (and soon after that, Play Store).

f-droid version is online ( Lawnchair (Pixel Launcher features plus customizability) - https://f-droid.org/app/ch.deletescape.lawnchair.plah )

Hm! I didn't know the task completed. Thought it's still to make the Foss
flavour and get rid of the NonFreeUpstream antifeature!
