They've not updated it there either though. It seems to be less of a case of can't update Android and more of a case of won't update Android
From their Twitter:
I can't speak to why they're not updating on FDroid but seeing as how it's much more difficult to get people to use FDroid on Android TV, I don't think it will help them with that issue anyway.
Google requiring their private signing key is insane, and goes completely against the concept of private/public keys.
Why is Google asking for this?
