[opensuse-factory] android-tools and way forward
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello all, With our preparations to migrate to openssl-1.1.0 we are in dire need of updated version of android-tools [0] as they won't compile with the new openssl (and new revisions of course will need boringssl). As it is obvious from the specfile the upstream does not make it really easy to produce the required binaries. I checked other distros and Fedora has a workable package [1] but even that seem to need quite tweaking with each update. I am wondering what would be the best solution to go forward, and maybe simply we ough to give up on it and just ship the binaries from Google [2], because honestly using 2 years old adb and fastboot is not a win either? Suggestions?

Hello all,
With our preparations to migrate to openssl-1.1.0 we are in dire need of updated version of android-tools [0] as they won't compile with the new openssl (and new revisions of course will need boringssl).
As it is obvious from the specfile the upstream does not make it really easy to produce the required binaries. I checked other distros and Fedora has a workable package [1] but even that seem to need quite tweaking with each update.
I am wondering what would be the best solution to go forward, and maybe simply we ough to give up on it and just ship the binaries from Google [2], because honestly using 2 years old adb and fastboot is not a win either?

Tom A while back I spent some time, using the Android.mk files, manually updating the Makefile for fastboot but eventually couldn't finish. I googled extensively prior to that for an Android.mk to gnu Makefile converter but it seems that you can convert from gnu to android but nobody's bothered with android to gnu. I've checked in my work to home:plater/android-tools if anyone wishes to build on it but be warned it's quite a mess and although I altered the git commands to download the sources a lot of the work was done within

When I was doing android development I always installed the version from google one of the reasons was so everyone on our team. So when I did a small amount of android stuff a little while back I did the same again, installing it to /opt isn't a hard process and as of 5 minutes ago it still seems to work fine. So while its ideal to have everything just there in a distro if no one has the time to make it work the sky probably won't fall in on anyones head if its not there. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
