When a bug tracker is inside the exclusive walled-gardens of MS Github or Gitlab.com, and you cannot or will not enter, where do you file your bug report? Here, of course. This is a refuge where you can report bugs that are otherwise unreportable due to technical or ethical constraints.

⚠of course there are no guarantees it will be seen by anyone relevant. Hopefully some kind souls will volunteer to proxy the reports.

OpenFoodFacts crashes on AOS5 or fails to install (slrpnk.net)

I installed the app on AOS 5 in 2022. It shows the title screen then crashes. So I never used it. I recently had another look. They now impose AOS 6 or newer. So I went to Izzy’s archive and found the latest AOS 5 version (1405). Wow how fat we’ve gotten.. The APK (which is compressed) went from 12mb to 86mb. It gave some error when trying to side-load.

possible workaround

So I guess the app can’t serve me. And there is no desktop app AFAICT. I was glad to find the DB (mondoDB-based) is freely available. That beast is ~13gb compressed. Before I work on freeing up space, can anyone say whether it is practical to make direct SQL queries on it? Is it straight forward to port it to SQLite, or worthwhile to learn this new mondo DB platform?
