All those binaries come from where? Can we build them? Hope they are open source...

@nwrkbiz Are the libs needed or not? At submit time the apk was 123kb, latest one is 8Mb with those wm.* files.

Care to explain what's going on?

I am currently working on a build receipe for f-droid.
https://gitlab.com/nwrkbiz/fdroiddata/-/blob/master/metadata/au.com.darkside.xdemo.yml

This are no shared libraries, this is the window manager (FLWM) executable prebuilt for every CPU architecture (completely statically linked, http://flwm.sourceforge.net/).

An embedded window manager is pretty handy and an enhancement for this application (closed: #10).

(I am aware of this problem: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/8053)

BTW: The last F-Droid already includes this binaries.

@licaon-kter

The last build succeeded and includes FLWM built from source: https://gitlab.com/nwrkbiz/fdroiddata/-/pipelines/240954260 but only for the mips64 architecture. I will now created a MR/PR with an *.yml which will build all architectures (the pipeline will most probably fail because of the 3h gitlab timeout limit).

I'll keep this open untill the PR/MR makes it into the F-Droid repo.

@nwrkbiz I still can't success to build libwm.so on Android platform. I checked your script, there is no NDK toolchain and no Android libxib/libxcb. Can you tell me the way building your libwm.so that can run on Android phone?

@foryoung2018 As I already told you and , I did NOT use NDK. I used https://gitlab.com/nwrkbiz/static-build
