Note: F-Droid requires root privileges to install Privileged Extension as a system "priv-app". https://f-droid.org/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid can make use of system privileges or permissions to install, update and remove applications on its own. The only way to obtain those privileges is to become a system app.
