How to install syncthing [answered]
Hello!
At least 1 other user and me are wondering how syncthing can be installed on a Jolla phone. Which of the ARM builds for example required?
Thanks for any hints!

Openrepos has it: https://openrepos.net/content/fooxl/syncthing-sf
Works nicely to sync between the Jolla phone and my Xubuntu box.
However, there is no port for the Jolla tablet (yet?) and the android version did not run on my tablet.
Looks like the package name has changed a bit, could you update the link?

This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
Check out this GUI for Jolla Tablet: GitHub hdhoang/harbour-syncthing
This involves Jolla SDK ( guide for non-tech persons).
I made binary packages for syncthing and syncthing-inotify. The binaries are the precompiled ones from syncthing.com.
https://openrepos.net/content/fooxl/syncthing-bin
https://openrepos.net/content/fooxl/syncthing-inotify-bin
The Controller GUI will be updated soon. Then it will not include the binary anymore but depend on the packages mentioned above.
Installing is not so hard. Choose the armv7 file of syncthing. For the next step you have to enable the developer mode of jolla and need the Warehouse Store. Install tar from Warehouse. Now open the Terminal, you will find it after enabling developer mode and reboot in the app list. Type “cd Downloads”, next type “tar -xvzf name of downloaded file from syncthing”. Then type “ls” to see the folder, “cd name of folder”. Now you can start syncthing with “./syncthing”. Now its running in terminal. How to use it? I dont know, have a look in the documentation.
To have an always up to date version:
/home/nemo/opt/syncthing-linux-arm/
) /home/nemo/opt/syncthing-linux-arm/etc/linux-systemd/user/syncthing.service
to /home/nemo/.config/systemd/user/syncthing.service
/home/nemo/opt/syncthing-linux-arm/syncthing
)systemctl --user enable syncthing.service
systemctl --user start syncthing.service
127.0.0.1:8384
to configure syncthingI would say https://together.jolla.com/question/79109/how-to-install-syncthing/?answer=149282#post-id-149282 providing prebuilt binary packages is the nicer solution

As far as i know, f-droid market is available in jolla devices.
