The last update of the `android-tools` package to an upstream commit was 2 years ago with version 20180828gitc7815d675: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/android-tools/commits/master Meanwhile, the SDK Platform Tools is regularly updated: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools Is there a reason for this hold-up?
I work on building latest upstream, but it takes time as need to rewrite our self made build scripts to represent current upstream ones. We cannot build using upstream build system as it is not present in fedora.
Thanks for the quick reply. I can understand some lag between upstream and Fedora packaging, but a 2 year delay has the appearance of an abandoned project. Is an update expected soon?
I hope it will happen soon. As google refactor code several times per month and those refactoring require our build scripts changes it is worse to update android-tools only in case some features are needed. Currently I see some fastboot commands don't work properly on some recent devices, thats why it's time to update android-tools. Also having such requests is another reason to work on it. Current status if you are interested in: mock android build system version generation(as we don't have android build system in fedora).
It's too bad the android build system (Soong?) is unavailable in Fedora. It would be a nice to have a more robust and less time-consuming method than custom build scripts. In the meantime, thank you for your efforts. I, and I am sure others too, will be looking forward to the updated android-tools package.
I would like to add my +1 on this issue. It seems MacOS homebrew has the latest version of adb (Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41 Version 30.0.0-6374843) which makes the client incompatible with adb server when used by calling `adb -H <adb-server-ip>` I get this when trying: ``` adb server version (40) doesn't match this client (41); killing... ADB server didn't ACK Full server startup log: /var/folders/tz/9fp25clj1gvc66rv551bwm1m0000gn/T//adb.501.log Server had pid: 72642 --- adb starting (pid 72642) --- adb I 01-28 12:08:28 72642 20547628 main.cpp:62] Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41 adb I 01-28 12:08:28 72642 20547628 main.cpp:62] Version 30.0.0-6374843 adb I 01-28 12:08:28 72642 20547628 main.cpp:62] Installed as /usr/local/bin/adb adb I 01-28 12:08:28 72642 20547628 main.cpp:62] adb F 01-28 12:08:29 72642 20547628 main.cpp:148] could not install *smartsocket* listener: listening on specified hostname currently unsupported * failed to start daemon adb: failed to check server version: cannot connect to daemon ``` Anyway, it would be awesome if we could get a more recent version.
This bug also impacts version 33. Could version be changed so this bug doesn't hit end of life? Or should I clone this bug report?
(In reply to Joseph D. Wagner from comment #6) > This bug also impacts version 33. Could version be changed so this bug > doesn't hit end of life? Or should I clone this bug report? I've updated the bug report to F33. The android-tools package has still not been updated.
The current fedora version of android-tools does not build with clang11 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=12895 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1923681#c7 Mageia 8 was recently released with android-tools 10 and clang 11. Maybe a source of inspiration? https://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/mageia/distrib/8/SRPMS/core/release/ I tried to build on COPR but some macros mismatched ...
Yes, that's definetely insteresting, thanks a lot for sharing! I'll try to build it in fedora. Looks like it's most promising way to preserve android-tools in f34.
