Per Debian Policy [1] you may need to package those redistributed
dependencies separately.
It looks like apktool [2] is already available in Debian, so you would remove
it from the package and set your package to depend on apktool.
However, unless my quick search missed them, you would need to create
packages for the other items in /vendors and then remove them from your
main package as well.
Cheers,
