Making Android toolchain portable

[FeodorFitsner]

Thank you for the great tool!

In our case host Python distributive is built on VM with Android SDK installed at /usr/lib/android-sdk/ndk/26.2.11394342/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64 and if a user has toolchain installed in a different location this host python, obviously, does not work with crossenv on their machine.

I see original toolchain path presents in multiple files:

• bin/python3-config
• bin/python3.12-config
• lib/python3.12/_sysconfigdata__linux_.py
• lib/python3.12/config-3.12/Makefile

What would be the solution to make crossenv and host-python to work with Android toolchain in location, different from the one Python was built with?

Is there an already some option in crossenv? Would simple find-replace over those files work?

Sorry, I somehow missed this issue.

Crossenv has a --relative-toolchain option that should do what you want. You will just need to make sure that the SDK binaries are in $PATH.

Will give it a try!
