The buildserver VM has not been upgraded yet to bullseye, so it is still on
Debian/stretch. The buildserver VM does not need to run `fdroid update`,
`fdroid signindex`, etc. so this new apksigner requirement should not
affect app builds even though they are stuck on Debian/stretch.
The current signing method uses apksigner to sign the JAR so that it
will automatically select algorithms that are compatible with Android
SDK 23, which added the most recent algorithms:
https://developer.android.com/reference/java/security/Signature
This signing method uses then inherits the default signing algothim
settings, since Java and Android both maintain those. That helps
avoid a repeat of being stuck on an old signing algorithm. That means
specifically that this call to apksigner does not specify any of the
algorithms.
The old indexes must be signed by SHA1withRSA otherwise they will no
longer be compatible with old Androids.
apksigner 30.0.0+ is available in Debian/bullseye, Debian/buster-backports,
Ubuntu 21.10, and Ubuntu 20.04 from the fdroid PPA. Here's a quick way to
test:
for f in `ls -1 /opt/android-sdk/build-tools/*/apksigner | sort ` /usr/bin/apksigner; do printf "$f : "; $f sign --v4-signing-enabled false; done
closes#1005
If a project uses fdroidserver as a library, then just calls
common.get_apk_id(), it will now work. Before, that project would have had
to include something like `common.config = {}` to avoid a stacktrace.
This needs a rerun of `fdroid update --clean`.
In case a build is disabled delete_disabled_builds takes care of
deleting it from the repo. But this only works if the apk follows the
normal name pattern. Otherwise it will stay in the folder and be picked
up by process_apks and added to the index.

With ~index-v2, the model is changing to offer the plain JSON file for easy
consumption. Then gpgsign will also provide a detached PGP signature for
systems that would rather verify based on PGP signatures than JAR signatures.

In case the version information is inside a submodule we need to
checkout the submodule at the version of the tag we test.

In case the app repository has a broken submodule, checkupdates failed
and did not search for any version updates. Ignoring the error let's us
at least find new version in the main repo (which is probably the right
place anyhow) and thus an improvement.
