Bug Description
Availability:
* ppa:ubuntu-
Rationale:
* needed to build http://
Security:
* see include copies of code
* upstream, infrequent OTA updates / code-drops with/without security patches
QA:
* package not-trivial to build, sources prepared using repo forest checkout
* upstream is mostly health and actively takes patches (AOSP & Cyanogenmod)
* these builds are for exotic hardware (nexus *) which require binary blobs for support
Dependenices:
* cross-toolchain and packages are self-contained to compile from source for arm-linux-
* Using sbuild, it builds correctly in i386 chroots, to build on amd64 hosts the package:i386 need to be installed, as the build is done using multilib toolchain targetting 32bit. Limitations in sbuild/current mutliarch spec doesn't allow speficying package:i386 [amd64] build-dependencies
Standards compliance:
* the packages comply with FHS, but by themself are not very useful, as in the end one should use android-tools to flash the produced binareis onto target devices
Maintainance:
* Ubuntu and Phone Foundations teams are maintaining these set of packages.

Some parts of android code base are duplicated across the following packages: linux-androidea bi
* android-tools
* gcc-arm-
* android
Work on consolidating android sources into a single android-src package is on the roadmap.
Android is the largest one, so any missing bits required for the other two packages, should be included in it.
