F-Droid can't build

[licaon-kter]

I've added Java17 but now it fails differently: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/jobs/4331486447#L775

fyi: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/commit/5badc146606fcceb9c46fa53574723a0646d3369#note_1403316246

@licaon-kter Sorry for the delay! Weird, because I've been using Java 17 for a while now and it works perfectly fine. After digging though the logs of the failed job I found the following line

sed -i -e /guardian.github.io/d -e '/dirchooser/a exclude group:"com.gu", module:"option"' build.gradle

Could this be causing the issues? We upgraded to (AGP 8) and apparently it enables R8 full mode by default.

@linsui fyi ^^^

@David-Development we can't accept that Maven repo so we exclude the lib as brought by https://github.com/passy/Android-DirectoryChooser/blob/master/library/build.gradle#LL17C14-L17C40

...and we import the Options lib directly: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/blob/5badc146606fcceb9c46fa53574723a0646d3369/metadata/de.luhmer.owncloudnewsreader.yml#L1694
