I did the same as some previous code which copied code from the zxing library and put it in the com.google.zxing namespace (but left the license in tact - is this okay for Apache 2.0 stuff?). The reason was that they encourage copying the relevant two files into your project and modifying as neccesary. In this case, it wasn't about modifying for functionalities sake, but rather for android support libraries sake. The upstream version doesn't support android.support.v4.app.Fragments, only android.app.Fragments. Hooking up the intent integrator from zxing almost removes the need for the refactoring which made FDroid.java responsible for handling "new repo" intents. However, there is still the one case of the user not using the QR code, but rather a web browser to connect to a swap. That is, they will click a link on the other phones web browser, which directs them to initiate the swap. Thus, we still need FDroid.java to be able to distinguish between a "swap" new repo request, and a regular "add repo" new repo request. In the process, I also commented out the "It's not working" button.
F-Droid Client
Client for F-Droid, the Free Software repository system for Android.
Building from source
The only required tools are the Android SDK and Apache Ant.
Once you have checked out the version you wish to build, run:
git submodule update --init
./ant-prepare.sh # This runs 'android update' on the libs and the main project
ant clean release
The project itself supports Gradle, but some of the libraries it uses don't. Hence it is currently not possible to build F-Droid with Gradle in a clean way without manual interaction.
Direct download
You can download the application directly from our site or browse it in the repo.

Running the test suite
FDroid client includes a embedded Android Test Project for running tests. It
is in the test/ subfolder. To run the tests from the command line, do:
git submodule update --init
./ant-prepare.sh # This runs 'android update' on the libs and the main project
ant clean emma debug install test
You can also run the tests in Eclipse. Here's how:
- Choose File -> Import -> Android -> Existing Android Code Into Workspace for the
fdroidclient/directory. - Choose File -> Import -> Android -> Existing Android Code Into Workspace for the
fdroidclient/test/directory - If fdroid-test has errors, right-click on it, select Properties, the Java Build Path, then click on the Projects tab.
- Click on the Add... button and select
fdroidclient/ - Right-click on the fdroid-test project, then Run As... -> Android JUnit Test
Troubleshooting
When building F-Droid, the following error may occur:
Invalid file: extern/UniversalImageLoader/library/build.xml
Check the output of the ./ant-prepare.sh command. This error is often accompanied by the following message:
Error: The project either has no target set or the target is invalid. Please provide a --target to the 'android update' command.
The most likely cause of this is that your installed Android SDK is missing the target version specified by one of the dependencies. For example, at the time of writing this, UniversalImageLoader uses the "android-16" target API, however the default install of the Android SDK will usually only install the latest version ("android-20" as of writing). So you will have to install missings "android-xx" targets via the SDK manager. To get a list of already installed SDK targets, run:
$ android list targets
To get a list of targets used by fdroidclient libs, run:
$ for i in $(grep "android update lib-project" ant-prepare.sh | cut -f5 -d' '); do
grep ^target $i/project.properties | cut -f2 -d'=';
done | sort | uniq | paste -s -d',' -
to install missing or all needed targets, for example "android-16" and "android-7" run:
$ android update sdk -u -t "android-16,android-7"
NOTE: While it may be tempting to add "--target=android-19" to the ant-prepare.sh script, it is not the correct solution. Although it may work, it can cause strange bugs at runtime.
