not my Jolla one. It's intended to be run ***and QA'ed*** by the community. More
on this 'soon')

As a note, IMHO apps should not do this on devices that do not have developer
(or sideloading) enabled simply because it imposes a significant risk on the
device owner that updates will not work. My app which is essentially
warehouse-for-chum makes that check and won't operate on non-developer devices.
It also has a mechanism to disable the repos which may be useful before an update.
