Apk unable to install self built archive

For Developers
1

I built a package and saved the corresponding .apk file. After updated the image (without building that particular package), I tried to install it but found:

# apk add /mnt/data/shonenjump-0.8.0-r1.apk
ERROR: shonenjump-0.8.0-r1.apk: UNTRUSTED signature

Inspecting the output of apk add --help I thought the following option would allow this but it too ended in an error:

#  apk add --allow-untrusted /mnt/data/shonenjump-0.8.0-r1.apk
(1/1) Installing shonenjump (0.8.0-r1)
ERROR: shonenjump-0.8.0-r1: ADB block error

What's the trick? This archive installed just fine a few days ago.

If your apk version is 2024-11-13, I would make clean, pull the new changes (including the revert to apk 2024-11-08) and try again. 2024-11-13 (which was online for around a ~day until this afternoon) causes a few regressions.

Works for me with 'current' HEAD (and the reverted apk):

or to test installing a locally built package that doesn't exist in OpenWrt's feeds (and which is utterly useless on x86_64, but, just for testing; it's technically built as arch=all, so it can be installed on ZyXEL's OEM firmware as well):
