[Bug]: You are likely using a very old version of Termux, probably installed from the Google Play Store.

[tangshuang]

Problem description

I download the app from F-Droid.
Found it not able to run Termux-change-repo because of binary down, so I rm the games.list and science.list to run pkg upgrade. After installing some missing pkg, it's able to run termux-* commands but after I reboot the app, I saw a red color sentence at the welcome screen.

How can I remove this warning?

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

What is the expected behavior?

Without the red warning

So you had issues with repositories on the "latest" version from F-Droid?

condition and file you find in ~/../usr/bin/login in line 11

Play Store deprecation warning is shown when this condition is satisfied:

if [ $# = 0 ] && [ -f /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/motd-playstore ] && [ -z "$TERMUX_VERSION" ] && [ "$PATH" = "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin:/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/applets" ]; then
        printf '\033[0;31m'; cat /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/motd-playstore; printf '\033[0m'
fi

Since first 2 checks are normally always true, only the last two vary between Termux installations:

[ -z "$TERMUX_VERSION" ] && [ "$PATH" = "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin:/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/applets" ]

If this is true, then one of these problems take place:

1. You are still using Play Store version: for example you attempted to upgrade with APK from F-Droid, but it failed due to signature mismatch, you didn't read the message and just dismissed it thinking that app from F-Droid is now installed.

   If that's the case, visit installation instructions at this page: https://github.com/termux/termux-app#installation

2. You are using old version from F-Droid. For example v0.101.

   In this case ensure that your application version is at least v0.117. Otherwise, if you want continue to use old version, please close the issue.

3. You did some customization which overrides/unsets the environment variables. (very unlikely, as will require re-exec of $PREFIX/bin/login from shell rc files or custom Termux build)

   Backup Termux installation as in https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Backing_up_Termux, erase application data and restart. Then check whether message gone.

You don't have $TERMUX_VERSION set. That's enough to close the issue - it is not on our side.

[ghost]

Make sure you are using Termux version 0.117 as everything below is not supported.

[tangshuang]

Make sure you are using Termux version 0.117 as everything below is not supported.

Info fact my I use the version 0.94 from F-Droid.

[tangshuang]

Make sure you are using Termux version 0.117 as everything below is not supported.

I found the reason, HUAWEI smart install use a old version which has the right sign. After close this feature and install the one from F-Droid give the right version.
