> I wonder if Mozilla corrected the build-tools issues in Firefox 52+,
I'll take a look at that and see if we can backport an easy patch (we can
easily write our own patch, too).
Okay, no, they were using the same versions [0] until last year [1]. Now I
wonder if Google recently changed which version of build-tools they
provide. If Google stopped supporting build-tools-23.0.3 with android-
sdk-r24.0.1 then that adds some complexity for us. When I looked into this
last night, I found the the manifest downloaded with sdk-r24.0.1 does not
contain build-tools-23.0.3 [2], but the manifest downloaded with
sdk-r25.2.5 does contain it [3].
I think patching |mach bootstrap| so it fetches build-tools-23.0.1 (for
the next few months) is the easiest solution.
