    @dantalion Waydroid has worked for several years now. The package is now included in the PureOS repositories indeed. Coincidentally, Debian has packaged it a few days later as well.

    Not sure what you mean by migration guide. Migration from/to what?

    @dos For the android user data

    Specially cause the snippet I referenced suggests to delete it in the installation step.

    It suggest to run:
    `sudo rm -rf /usr/share/waydroid-extra /var/lib/waydroid ~/.local/share/waydroid ~/.local/share/applications/waydroid.*.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/Waydroid.desktop
    `

    @dantalion But what are you migrating from/to? What do you want to do in the first place?

    This is an installation guide, so it tells you how to start from the clean slate. There shouldn't be a need for a upgrade guide, just upgrade 😜

    @dos From the old pureos to 11. Having previously manually installed Waydroid from the CI Debian package.

    I wish to upgrade pureos without losing my android user data.

    I guess as long as I make a backup I can just uninstall the old packages and place the user data back in the right location after installing Waydroid from the repository.
