The situation is actually not that bad - see https://www.reddit.com/r/termux/comments/1dbujal/information... for more follow-up information. TL;DR: Termux is coming back to Google …

For a small startup whose product requires source code access (think static analysis as a CI service), how dangerous is it having access to the (non-open) source code of commercial…

A properly written trigger shouldn't throw away data silently. It should raise an exception, which indeed would cause the query to fail, and roll back the whole transaction (so no …

Note that you can use mosh on Android using Termux ( https://termux.com ) - run 'apt update && apt install mosh' to install the mosh package.

When you 'apt install coreutils' in Termux you get coreutils installed as a multi-call binary to save space. 1556 kB for the package in total (including man pages).

Great, thanks :). Let me know if you miss any font or colour theme from it!

Great! Yes, I've been experimenting with ARM64 packages, will look at it more when things settle down a bit. Nice, let me know if there is a font or colour theme you miss from it!

Thanks - this is now fixed, if you do an 'apt update && apt upgrade' it should now work!

Correct, it won't work for secondary users! It's a trade-off for avoiding a fake chroot.

Thanks! Is it the make program itself which tries to run /bin/sh, or does it try to run a file from a project which has a #!/bin/sh start? If it's GNU make itself which tries to ca…

Yes, the repository is an app-specific one, containing cross compiled (and sometimes patched) packages to run directly without chroot. Just tell me about desired packages (such as …

I think TerminalIDE is rather similar, with Termux having more up-to-date packages and terminal emulation. Since Termux requires Lollipop or later, and TerminalIDE only works on An…

Thanks, KBOX have been one of the inspirations for the app! The main technical difference between how Termux and KBOX runs packages is that is that KBOX uses libfakechroot for runn…

Thanks! I'll think about making the source more obvious in the store listing or the app interface.

Yes, Android 5.0 or later is required due to the libc changes made in lollipop. It also requires an arm(64) or x86(_64) cpu - no mips support at the moment!
