https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/7800 Some years ago somebody reached out to me associated with https://github.com/xloem/QRStream and some further work a different party had engaged in. The communications are on open issue threads. Nowadays, there has been further work in QR code communication. I didn't finish the merge submission, and somebody named Izzy helped incredibly moving the contribution forward. The project has always built fine for me locally. -- Izzy @IzzySoft · 1 year ago Maintainer Thanks! That fixed that, and we got one step further. Build still fails – well, before it starts: fdroidserver.exception.VCSException: Git checkout of '17b8f7961995f45d8dd8ee9986d821aaa1ef2f1a' failed fatal: reference is not a tree: 17b8f7961995f45d8dd8ee9986d821aaa1ef2f1a That refers to srclibs, more specifically: python-for-android@17b8f7961995f45d8dd8ee9986d821aaa1ef2f1a. Do you have an idea? Here I must pass and have no pointers (apart from "wild guessing" like "try a different commit/tag"). - xloem @xloem · just now Contributor Hi, it sounds like python-for-android might have force-pushed or deleted something. Izzy was so helpful in trying to move this forward. It's so sad this code didn't make it. I'm afraid I live a life of wildly changing between dissociated psychotic states after abuse associated with security work. I notice emails sent to cypherpunks@lists.cpunks.org . I can be sometimes reached via text message at +1-207-518-8256 or on matrix at @xloem:matrix.org and at 0xloem@gmail.com but it can take repeated attempts for my states to align with receiving the message. Does anyone know where I might find somebody who might be interested in helping move this PR to completion? ------------- KARL: further replies to attempt to continue this work should have a spam/wrong/crazy tag, unless I can keep it coherent and relevant.
