I haven't used it, but could it be that it is that it's
dependent on proprietary android google maps

Well, I read the forum postings linked to above about onebusaway, & I still don't understand why it isn't included in fdroid.  It sounds like every few months, an app could be added & removed from fdroid, based on what the app maker changes.

If that is the case, & it appears to be, then problem solved.  I'm so used to apps on Google Play being non-libre software, that it didn't occur to me that it might be Libre.  Very cool.
 
 
But it's not available on f-droid so there isn't an easy
