[Android-tools-devel] Bug#824930: apktool: creates directories and an empty 1.apk file in $HOME

[Paul Wise]

Package: apktool
Version: 2.1.1+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Usertags: cruft

For some reason apktool seems to think it is appropriate to create
files in my home directory even though I didn't give permission.

pabs at chianamo ~ $ mkdir tmp-android-reversing-project
pabs at chianamo ~ $ cd tmp-android-reversing-project/
pabs at chianamo ~/tmp-android-reversing-project $ gplaycli -pvd com.example.foo
1/1 com.example.foo
