The previous language hinted at the fact we auto download and install
updates like Google Play. This is not the case (unless you have
priv-ext). To clarify, now we "Automatically _fetch_ updates", ready to
install when the user initiates the install.
Fixes#839.
Locale.getDefault() returns the default for the current JVM (or whatever
runtime Android calls it these days). By asking the configuration, we
will get the Locale that the user has selected from within the F-Droid
preferences.
Replicant is committed to follow the GNU Free System Distribution
Guidelines (FSDG)[1]. Apps with certain anti-feature flags in F-Droid
violate these guidelines and thus shouldn't be available in the
F-Droid client on Replicant[2].
Issue #564 discusses this, although only the case of having apps with
anti-features optionally filtered. To be compliant with the FSDG
guidelines, all violating apps must not be accessible and there
shouldn't be a setting to make them visible. Not all anti-features in
F-Droid violate the FSDG guidelines, so no need to filter all of them.

The previous dependency extended the support library bottom nav. It did
this at the expense of lots of reflection. This is pretty brittle and
likely to break in future releases as the support lib gets updated. In
the mean time we need to have a fully working bottom nav, so this commit
includes a different dependency.
Most 3rd party bottom navigation panes look great. All that I found
require at least API 11, mostly API 14 (due to animations I suspect).
I've forked one of the most popular ones on GitHub and made it support
back down to API 10. My fork is added as a dependency until upstream
accepts the PR.
If they don't ever, then we can reconsider what our options are.
The two times I've swapped the bottom nav implementation have both been
trivial. The code generally only touches the MainActivity and its
layout.
Shows a red badge over the "Updates" menu item.
The updates badge is a bit hacky. There are indeed libraries which
implement a bottom nav which have support for badges built into
them. However they target API 14. There are also other badge
libraries which just deal with rendering, but for the cost of
another dependency, it is not particularly difficult to create a
`TextView` with a background and position it ourselves.
* Show selectable background behind "Show/Hide apps" button.
* Scroll to the relevant place in the list when showing/hiding apps.
* Only show one line (ellipsized) of the apps to update in header.
This will read downloaded .apk files from the disk cache in the background.
For each apk that corresponds to an app which can be updated, the status
manager is notified.
Even though it doesn't matter here because it is going from one side of
the parent all the way to the other. I hope it makes it easier if we
completely avoid right/left and only ever use start/end. Then searching
for RTL problems will be easier.
Alows for more flexibility in what we are able to display, including:
* Prompting users to donate to frequently updated apps
* Showing messages from package maintainers to users
* Marking apps for later installation when offline
Most of these are not yet implemented, but will be able to when
required, whereas they were not able to in the previous UI.
This is in response to identifying a bug with the way priorities work
with categories. Two repos may both specify different categories for
the same package. In this case, F-Droid should only select the
categories from the highest priority repo. Well, it is not to say that
this is the most preferable option, but it is consistent with other ways
that repo priorities are used.
Doing this required tweaking our `IconDownloader` which we give to the
UIL init method in FDroidApp. It only knew how to load from HTTP, but we
needed it to fetch `drawable://` images too (which the library
supports). In addition, it has been renamed `ImageDownloader` as it also
is now used for screenshots/feature images.
This is currently needed for screenshot placeholders, but might be
useful in the future as well. Note that the default BaseImageDownloaded
supports this, as well as content:// and drawable:// protocols.
This was not updating the versions expand icon correctly when the user
clicked on it. It was working when they scrolled away and returned to
the versions list. Now it works for both.
Fixes#882.
Couldn't figure out the exact cause of going from Inkscape .svg to
Android VectorDrawable, so redrew it in inkscape and this time it works.
*shrug*.
