The `versionCode` should be the same as the one in build that was uplodade to Play Store.

Normally F-Droid server wants to run Gradle itself, but we do not specify the `gradle` key in order to run `make release-fdroid` ourselves in `build` step. We also add `android/build.gradle` to `scanignore` to avoid F-Droid trying to use Gradle directly.
Once the PR is merged it may take a few days for the F-Droid server farm to build and deploy the new version to their site and app. You can look up the current state of builds [here](https://f-droid.org/wiki/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&days=7&from=&hidebots=0&hideanons=1&hideliu=1&limit=500) and look for your App ID and a `deploy` change after it.
# F-Droid Build
F-Droid requires submitted applications to be free of non Open Source software. For this reason we need to exclude certain Google libraries at build time.
This is achieved by setting `GOOGLE_FREE=1` in the `.env.release` file. This affects two things:
1. [Clojure code conditional](../src/status_im/acquisition/core.cljs) which stops use of `get-referrer`.
2. [Gradle build configuration](../android/app/build.gradle) by excluding Google libraries.
Both are affected by the `.env` file and both are required.
