"We found a vulnerability..."
(lemmy.sdf.org)
Can I get more info on why these are showing up? I've never seen such a thing on F-Droid before.
What is wrong with updating?
it was mentioned in a This Week In F-droid blog post around September. basically google fucked up an important development library, and any firefox forks (possibly some other apps too) could not be built anymore normally. of course google was unwilling to fix the issue, so linsui (and F-droid member) fixed the build process somehow, possibly temporarily.
you may ask how is this not a problem for the official release of the firefox app, and my answer is that they probably build this component for themselves, and fixed the problem in house (if they had it at all)
Right, but that comment that I quoted from the F-Droid forum makes it sound like there is some sort of issue updating to a build with the vulnerability patched. My Mull is on 131.0.3, and I do not remember having an issue updating it.
You're probably getting your Mull updates via the DivestOS repository, not the official F-Droid repository.
