It's been more than one year that Replicant is aware that shipping F-Droid as-is is not compliant with the Free System Distrbution Guidelines(FSDG)[1]. This is beacause we hoped to resolve the issue upstream in a timely manner, but that didn't happen. As we now focus on a longer term solution[2], it doesn't make any sense to keep F-Droid as-is in Replicant. That new approach would enable to have an extremely low maintenance cost for both F-Droid and Replicant if it is merged upstream. It would also enable users and developers of other Android distributions to use it.

To initialize your local repository using the LineageOS trees, use a command like this:
repo init -u git://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b cm-13.0
Then to sync up:
repo sync
Please see the LineageOS Wiki for building instructions, by device.
For more information on this Github Organization and how it is structured, please read the wiki article
Buildbot
All supported devices are built nightly and periodically as changes are committed to ensure the source trees remain buildable.
You can view the current build statuses in the Jenkins tool.
