Hi Julien and Leo,

Recently I noticed this repository, by looking at how Archlinux managed
to package newer versions of adb/fastboot: https://github.com/nmeum/android-tools

I wonder if using it is something you've considered? Using submodules to
gather all the sources isn't very guix-y, but at least it's using cmake
so we wouldn't need to package Android build tools.

Just thought I'd make sure we're aware this exists! I too would be said
to see adb/fastboot go away :-).

Thanks,
Pierre
