Description

LineageOS for microg, 16.0-202000416-microg-gts210vewifi

I installed most apps using F-Droid. They installed just fine, and update in F-Droid just fine.

I needed some apps not in F-Droid, so I installed them using APK Pure (3.17.5). They (seemed) to install fine. The problem is that any apps needing updates via APK Pure will not update, they all always lead to this (very unhelpful) message from APK Pure: "App not installed".

How do I determine where the problem is and how to fix it?

Research direction

Start with the reported LineageOS for microG 16.0 environment and the APK Pure 3.17.5 update failure described in the issue. Reproduce the “App not installed” result and determine whether the behavior is attributable to GmsCore, the operating system, or APK Pure; document the evidence and a confirmed cause as done.
