I saw the shared lib stuff and after locating the files it says it requires, this directory has them: /home/storm/Android/Sdk/ndk/25.2.9519653/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/sysroot/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-android/33/ I tried some stuff but it never changed, im not sure if it's an error at all or if something else is the issue since it just says "Info"

Reproduction

No response

Expected behavior

No errors, app opens in emulator.

Could you show the contents of src-tauri\gen\android\buildSrc\src\main\java\com\tauri\tauri_app_mobile\kotlin\BuildTask.kt

[StormLight14]

Yep, sorry for the late reply!

that's really weird, could you try removing src-tauri/gen and run cargo android init again and see if it is fixed? Otherwise, I will need some steps to reproduce

[StormLight14]

Before that, I have one suspicion of what it could be. I had an issue where the file x86_64-linux-android-ranlib couldn't be found, and when i asked elsewhere someone said llvm-ranlib which was in the path ~/Android/Sdk/ndk/25.0.8775105/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/ is the same thing and just to rename it to be the name of the file, and I don't know if this is actually true. Renaming it did make the error a lot smaller though.

[amrbashir]

I'd recommend creating a new project using create-tauri-app and see if the issue persists, if it does, let me know the steps you made
