GSOC 2020 WEEK 11 REPORT - Android SDK tools in DEBIAN

[Manas Kashyap <manaskashyaptech@gmail.com>]

Hola Everyone, this is my 11th Week report for GSOC .

Work Done:- 

• Started Working on the FTBFS issues (https://salsa.debian.org/android-tools-team/admin/-/issues/26) . 
  
  
• The first package I fixed is android-framework-23 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=967119), this package has an issue with python3 as python2 is marked for removal and therefore its dependency which was dependent on python2 was failing. 
  Talked with mentors regarding this failure and the proposed way of solving came was that we don't need to do things manually in this as soon as python2 is removed, python will be started as python3 itself and therefore its not even an issue to be fixed, Chirayu Desai , one of my mentors told me to move on another package as he will send the mail regarding this on the bugs mailing list stated.
  
  
• While working on the packages listed, some of the packages i already started working on the updation of these packages like , android-platform-system-core (https://salsa.debian.org/Manas-kashyap-guest/android-platform-system-core) , android-platform-art (https://salsa.debian.org/Manas-kashyap-guest/android-platform-art) therefore it was coming as a new issue while fixing these bugs and updating them as this new version depends on kotlin or Gradle eventually therefore after talking with mentors i decided to fix the current versions FTBFS rather then updating them, so i took android-platform-system-tools-aidl (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=966912) and started working on this package.
  

This week was a little hectic for me as it's my last year of undergraduate, and so to get my degree, I had to fill my forms as well as other work to be done.

That's all for this week!
