Every release build before this went out as CN=Flamenet Files. Not a decision —
app/build.gradle.kts read ~/.flamenet-android-signing.properties, a path with no
app in its name, so any Flamenet Android app built on that Mac inherited the
Files identity.
It matters because an Android signing key is permanent. Once a device installs a
build signed with one key it REFUSES every later build signed with another, so
the only remedies after the fact are a new package name — a different app,
orphaning every install — or Play App Signing, which has to be set up before
first publication. Sharing one key across products also means one compromised
keystore takes out both.
Now prefers ~/.flamenet-messenger-signing.properties and falls back to the
shared file, so a machine with only the old setup still produces a signed build
rather than failing in a confusing way.
Verified in the artifact:
Signer #1 certificate DN: CN=Flamenet Messenger, O=Extant 2000 LLC, C=US
RSA 4096, SHA-256 791fc826d572a70abfaf7db7fa7784dad0f86f204bb313f0d75ee676df8d3a1d
⚠️ The keystore and its password live outside the repo and there is NO recovery
for either. Losing them means the app can never be updated again.
