| দ্রষ্টব্য: F-Droid requires root privileges to install Privileged Extension |
| as a system "priv-app". |
| |
| https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid can make use of system privileges or permissions |
| to install, update and remove applications on its own. The only way to |
| obtain those privileges is to become a system app. |
| |
| This is where the Privileged Extension comes in - being a separate app |
| and much smaller, it can be installed as a system app and communicate |
| with the main app via AIDL IPC. |
| |
| This has several advantages: |
| |
| * Reduced disk usage in the system partition |
| * System updates don't remove F-Droid |
| * The process of installing into system via root is safer |
| |
| Instead of this build, most users will want to install the |
| "Over-The-Air" (OTA) update ZIP file is called |
| https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota. This is here to update |
| Privileged Extension when it has been installed using the OTA ZIP. |
