The F-Droid repository is built with the newest F-Droid tools at every release
Build / Desktop, server and tools (push) Successful in 1m9s

- Each release now installs the newest version of F-Droid's own tools that has been out for at least two weeks,
  instead of one fixed version, so the repository keeps up with F-Droid without anyone updating it by hand.

- **The APK reaches an F-Droid repository on packages.arasaka.software from the same job** (31 Oct 2026), after the
release is published, so the repository can lag the release page but never lead it. `.gitea/scripts/fdroid.sh`
installs fdroidserver into `tools/fdroid` (cached like the JDK) with uv from `setup.json` and the hash-locked
`packaging/fdroid/requirements.txt`, because the box has no `ensurepip` and the apt package would bring 242 others.
The environment is made at the cache's real path (`pwd -P`) and rebuilt whenever `fdroid --version` fails: its
scripts carry the absolute path they were made at, `tools/fdroid` is a symlink from a workspace that can move, and
0.15.1's step failed with `fdroid: not found` on exactly that.

the box has no `ensurepip` and the apt package would bring 242 others. **Nothing pins fdroidserver** (owner, 31 Oct
2026: no patching it from time to time): each run installs the newest fdroidserver, and the newest of everything it
needs, published at least 14 days before the run, so a bad upload has usually been pulled before the job sees it,
and prints the version it got. It installs into a fresh environment in a temporary folder with the signing key taken
out of its environment; nothing is kept between runs, because an environment's scripts carry the absolute path they
were made at, and 0.15.1's step failed with `fdroid: not found` on a kept one. A new fdroidserver that breaks
`fdroid update` fails this step after the release is published: the repository then lags, and the log names the
version to look at.
It signs the repository with the APK's own key (`MEWEB_KEYSTORE_B64` and `MEWEB_KEYSTORE_PASS`, alias `meweb`), so
the F-Droid fingerprint is the certificate's `5F52CFF4…FDF846` and there is no second key to lose; it refuses any
other. It builds a new snapshot in
