From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Read the GitHub readme:

Version x.x.x was released, why is it not yet on F-droid?

We have no control over F-droid's build process. This process is automatic and not always predictable in terms of time it takes. If a new version does not appear in F-droid a week after its release, then feel free to open an issue about it and we will look into it.
