Non free dependencies

[Donkey-Doug]

According to the fdroid app, quick bible has non free dependencies. Also, the app is no longer updated on the fdroid repo.

Why is this the case?

Offending libs:
---------------
* Crashlytics (/com/crashlytics): NonFreeDep,Tracking
* Firebase Data Transport (/com/google/android/datatransport): NonFreeNet
* Google Mobile Services (/com/google/android/gms): NonFreeDep
* Firebase (/com/google/firebase): NonFreeNet,NonFreeDep
* Firebase Analytics (/com/google/firebase/analytics): NonFreeDep,Tracking

5 offenders.

The libraries marked NonFreeDep are show-stoppers for F-Droid.org. It looks like GMS and Firebase are just dragged in by Crashlytics and Firebase Analytics. Maybe you could get rid of those two, or replace them by some less offensive FOSS analytics? You can find some hints on that here, including possible candidates.

You could do so in general, or maybe establish a FOSS build flavor to be used for F-Droid (and for the APKs attached to your releases). Your more privacy focused users will appreciate that!
