Any reason for not updating?

Do you remove google binaries or do a straight build from their sources?

you’ve been around for so long yet still don’t know?

I know what F-droid does. My point was: Does linphone sources contain Google binaries, which would trigger removal?

P.S. I am considering building, so, if they do contain binaries, I would appreciate a link with the commit.

You can look at the last built log after gradle clean stage I guess, to see what’s cleaned up by the tools.

And in the recipe for the manual stuff
