Thanks for the report. I'll fix it ASAP.

Update:
The issue seems to be occurring only for F-Droid builds. There was a configuration issue where the appropriate version name was not being used for the gradle plugin dependency for F-Droid builds. So, while the GitHub builds use the published versions, the F-Droid builds used the non-published, SNAPSHOT versions.

The above commit should fix the issue, but I still have to test those changes thoroughly.

Close, I'm tested latest dev building. Working

Thanks for testing, @MrIkso.

I did test the changes on my own and can confirm that the issue has been resolved. There was another issue that I forgot to mention earlier which caused the build to fail when apply plugin: '...' syntax was used in Gradle build scripts. This issue has been resolved as well.

v2.7.1-beta will be released soon with the patch.

Building the F-Droid client in AndroidIDE will require some changes to the build configuration.

For example, I see that the client uses Room database, which depends on the sqlite-jdbc library. sqlite-jdbc is known to have some issues when it is used in Android (see xerial/sqlite-jdbc#789, xerial/sqlite-jdbc#796 and #536). The issue was resolved in sqlite-jdbc v3.41.2.2 and Room v2.6.0-beta01.
