[Android-tools-devel] About packaging android-platform-tools and android-platform-system-core

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

Thanks for handling this Roger!  I think there are some packages in 
android-platform-system-core that other packages depend on (but I could be 
wrong).  If so, then all the conflicting packages should be removed from 
android-platform-system-core, and left only in android-platform-core.
