I just got hit by this, the bug is alive and kicking. Most recent versions of both NC app as well as NC News off Fdroid, same signs, same error. Running Lineage 14.1 on a Samsung GT-P5210.

With which method do you install packages via Fdroid? Root, priviled extension / manual?

Background: I guess that somehow one of the apps is not allowed to access the others app account and thus it fails.

It still happens only on this phone. I suppose it has something to do with the custom ROM. If there is anything I can add, please let me know.
