Crate
Nothing changes in how the app behaves. F-Droid rebuilds this app
from source and checks the result byte-for-byte against the
published release; the new build toolchain made two parts of the
APK depend on the machine that built it, so that check failed and
F-Droid would have stopped shipping updates.

collection, search or home feed.

rather than uploaded.
