Quran_android: Help with placing software on F-droid

[Ramaddan]

assalamu alaikum

May Allah reward all those who worked on this great software for their efforts.

Truly, a great piece of software, mashalah.

I recommended this software to f-droid.org, which is an android repository of open source apps.

They are strict about the apps being open source and free from any closed source blob, and they gave me this reply.

_"We have the metadata for this app since 2013-03-01, but unfortunately, we are unable to build. While the licensing issue has been fixed, it still uses non-free crashreporting software. They have a switch to disable it being _used_ (which would be acceptable), but it still is required for building the app (which is not)."_

This is the link to the mentioned post:

Can anyone help with this "small" issue :-)

Jazakum allah khair
wa alaikum assalam

Hello, is there any progress on this issue? This small fix would be very nice, as a righteous app such as this should also be free as in freedom. :-)

@ahmedre Any updates on this issue?

[alezzacreative]

any progress her?

[ahmedre]

i'll replace Crashlytics with Firebase Crashlytics which is open source. that should fix the problem and allow submission of the app there in sha' Allah.

any progress on this :) ?

Wa alaikum assalam.

Crashlytics is already replaced with Firebase Crashlytics. So, in theory, the app should be compatible with F-Droid now.

in that case i urge the dev to submit the app at : https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp

[Ramaddan]

Assalaamu alaykum

Yes please. It would be great to have it there.

Wa alaikum salam.

Sorry, apparently, Firebase Crashlytics is also not acceptable.

https://f-droid.org/docs/Inclusion_Policy/:

We cannot build apps using proprietary tracking/analytic dependencies like Crashlytics and Firebase.
