Update doc for Android building ?

[julien2412]

Hi,

Just for curiosity, I wanted to try Android building. So I started with
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/BuildingForAndroid#How_to_build_it

I downloaded NDK then tried SDK. Since for the last one, the url proposed
only Android Studio, I had to launch Android Studio and its configuration to
retrieve SDK (see my change in wiki page).

After having runned ./autogen.sh without problem (once I installed Python
headers lib because --enable-python=fully-internal doesn't help here), I had
this error:
/home/julien/lo/libo_backport/workdir/UnpackedTarball/owncloud_android_lib/build.xml:90:
Cannot find
/home/julien/lo/libo_backport/external/android-sdk-linux/tools/ant/build.xml
imported from
/home/julien/lo/libo_backport/workdir/UnpackedTarball/owncloud_android_lib/build.xml

/home/julien/lo/libo_backport/external/owncloud-android-lib/ExternalProject_owncloud_android_lib.mk:17:
recipe for target
'/home/julien/lo/libo_backport/workdir/ExternalProject/owncloud_android_lib/build'
failed

I found this thread about this:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42912824/the-ant-folder-is-suddenly-missing-from-android-sdk-did-google-remove-it

but after having retrieved an sdk from
https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.5-linux.zip, I had
this:
  [taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource anttasks.properties. It
could not be found.
  [taskdef] Could not load definitions from resource emma_ant.properties. It
could not be found.

BUILD FAILED

In the meantime, it seems "sdkmanager" is preferred to android update.
