I never looked too much at Android SDK structure - have it installed on
one machine but then decided to create android-tools package cause I was
mainly using adb and fastboot commands.

Thanks for deb.diff - I am too used to debhelper < 7 where all steps
were present in debian/rules ;)

I plan to apply for DM soon so we could co-maintain it in Debian and
just request syncs in Ubuntu. But decided to first get some packages
sponsored otherwise it would does not have sense.

But you are fetching binaries so I do not think that it may end in
'main' part of Debian. Not to mention lack of support for architectures
other then i386/amd64 which mean no adb/fastboot for my Efika MX
Smartbook (which runs armhf).

Adding more tools is in TODO - so far users of package does not
requested other ones.
