state of gstreamer for android (non compilable, unmaintained? not tested def)

[Mikel Pérez]

I've been writing a music player (for replaygain, faster library scanning
than mediastore + caching external storage results, better API overall than
android's MediaPlayer, etc) for a while and tried to update to 1.14.0, but
I can't compile my app because of these messages:

arm64:
  [arm64-v8a] Compile        : twelveinch-gst1 <= scanbin.c

--------------------------

also, while I can compile with 1.12.4, I can't run the x86 version due to
text rellocations:

---------------

so it seems this 1.14.0 release is borked for android, and the previous one
was borked for x86 android. is the project still being maintained? I'd hate
to see it go because I found the perfect lib for my musicplayer
