Public bug reported:

Availability:
 * ppa:ubuntu-toolchian/android and/or saucy/multiverse

Rationale:
 * needed to build http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-touch/

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 & Cynogenmod)
 * 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-androideabi
 * 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.
