[Android-tools-devel] simg2img (and friends) missing for arm

[Nicolas Dechesne]

hi there,

i have noticed that simg2img (and related packages) are restricted to:

Architecture: amd64 i386

The previous package that is now deprecated (android-tools-fsutils)
used to provide binaries for arm targets. Is there any specific reason
why they were left out? I have an application that requires simg2img
to run on ARM, it's a flashing tool for ARM based board (e.g.
Dragonboard 410c). I am currently working out of buster, and
android-tools-fsutils is no longer there, and simg2img is missing for
arm..

Would such a change be likely accepted:

I am enabling more than ARM, since I think we should simply support
all arch that we support for the other packages (e.g. such as
fastboot).

Note: this patch is not tested yet, I am just trying to understand if
there is anything I could be missing for now.

thanks
