as the situation of when f-droid will be able to fix their infra and update the keys for this app is still uncertain, and you have the official keys, could you please just upload the signed apk to here?
it's MUCH nicer being able to auto-update ALL other termux addons, and termux itself, over having to MANUALLY check for app updates AND installing test-key versions which anyone could potentially misuse (tricking you into installing it)...
way nicer when you have to check ONLY this plugin's updates manually...

it's been quite a while since the fdroid issues started, and it's apparently blocked by some internal reorganization of their own stuff, which has no clear timeline (last I checked some time ago), so would be nice to do gui scripts without resorting to having to manually check for updates for every plugin (not aware of any automatic script), or letting anyone add a secret plugin (in any of the apk one might download from somewhere, including third-party fdroid repos, or self-updaters of some apps on github which prompt to install updates directly, there's a tiny chance they might for whatever reason, be evil...even tho extremely unlikely...)

We don't have access to fdroid's private key(s) so we cannot create an app that is compatible with the other fdroid apps.

We are planning to create signed release variants of the apps (signed with a new private key, i.e. not compatible with fdroid or github debug builds) and upload them to github and probably setup a custom fdroid repo for them when termux-app 0.119 has been released
