Maplibre is not usable on f-droid

[meypod]

Hi

Since Maplibre is using https://dl.bintray.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-native maven repo, f-droid builds are failing. I think the library should be hosted on a well-known maven repo.

thank you for your hard work

I don't even see the Android documentation adding this line?! A search for bintray.com comes up empty. I wonder if this is a legacy requirement of older versions of the SDK. Perhaps the newer SDK doesn't require it and just removing this line will work?

hi
it's because it's here, in maplibre-react-native:

maplibre-react-native/android/rctmln/build.gradle

Line 56 in 9fcf6d1

url = "https://dl.bintray.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-native"

@tyrauber I seem to be able to build it locally with the maven block removed, and the build works, so I guess it's a legacy requirement of maplibre-react-native ?

sorry about the mention.

No worries! The native SDKs have been updated significantly since the 9.0 SDKs. My guess it is probably can be removed, I just haven't got to testing it myself.

The latest MapLibre Native is compatible F-Droid since Android SDK v10:

As far as i remember you just need to remove the maven block mentioned and it's good to go
