Just uncomment line 53 in make_apk, and you get a testnet apk that can co-exist with your mainnet install.
No need to do a clean rebuild of ".buildozer/" either.
- note: "make theming" is kivy-specific, and not needed for the qml gui apk
- note: "make theming" does not run automatically as part of the build scripts,
although it used to in the past. For reproducible builds, the
"electrum/gui/kivy/theming/atlas" git submodule contains the build
artefacts. However, the user is supposed to manually run "make theming"
when changing the atlas/images.
This is bumping the python versions bundled inside our binaries.
For macOS and AppImage, from 3.9.10 to 3.9.11.
For Android, from 3.8.12 to 3.8.13.
Windows is left untouched as I am having issues with the wine build when using 3.9.11.
(see https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/7721#issuecomment-1071901116 )
This is the new minimum the google play store requires.
note: the newer android command-line tools use a tiny bit different paths,
hence the `mv "${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/cmdline-tools" "${ANDROID_SDK_HOME}/tools"` rename
see https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android/issues/2540
This includes two logically separate changes:
- on the host, try not to require sudo when running the build scripts
- namely when interacting with the docker daemon, this requires
the unix user on the host to be part of the `docker` group
- this solves part of https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/7602
- while running inside the docker containers, do not run as root
- this means that e.g. files created in mounted folders should
no longer be owned by root on the host
- there is some code duplication involved here - not sure
how it could be deduped.
maybe fixes https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/7640
Looks like by default pip is ignoring the locally available setuptools and wheel,
and downloading the latest ones from the internet at build time...

> When making build requirements available, pip does so in an isolated environment. That is, pip does not install those requirements into the user’s site-packages, but rather installs them in a temporary directory which it adds to the user’s sys.path for the duration of the build. This ensures that build requirements are handled independently of the user’s runtime environment. For example, a project that needs a recent version of setuptools to build can still be installed, even if the user has an older version installed (and without silently replacing that version).

> In certain cases, projects (or redistributors) may have workflows that explicitly manage the build environment. For such workflows, build isolation can be problematic. If this is the case, pip provides a --no-build-isolation flag to disable build isolation. Users supplying this flag are responsible for ensuring the build environment is managed appropriately (including ensuring that all required build dependencies are installed).
If only it were that easy!
If we add the "--no-build-isolation" flag, it becomes our responsibility to install *all* build time deps,
hence we now have "requirements-build-makepackages.txt".
Rebased our branches on latest p4a develop HEAD and buildozer master HEAD.
Re `android.allow_backup = False` in buildozer.spec, now that this setting
has been exposed to buildozer.spec (see https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/pull/1206),
we could finally drop a commit from our branch that did the same:
7a7d415d90
Re commenting out `android.arch` in buildozer.spec, we are setting this
via the ENV VAR in make_apk.
