aapt2 35.0.2 shared library issue

[uweseimet]

The fact that aapt2 35.0.2 is not linked statically but dynamically causes an issue, at least on some platforms:

uname -a Linux ora1 6.5.0-1027-oracle #27~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 20 13:14:31 UTC 2024 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU/Linux ldd aapt2 ./aapt2: error while loading shared libraries: /lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libc.so: invalid ELF header

With the statically linked aapt2 from previous releases everything was fine.

I would like to suggest to also link the 35.0.2 tools statically, in order to ensure portability.

the next version will provide a statically linked version

@lzhiyong Any plans when you are going to release the next version? I am asking because I would like to build apps for the Android 15 API, and as far as I can tell this requires a current version of aapt2.

[lzhiyong]

Please wait for upstream updates. the current version released by Google is 35.0.2

next update is 35.0.3

[uweseimet]

Well, the problem is that I canmot use your binaries of the current version. Is there any chance that you rebuild them and link them statically? Or will 35.0.3 be released soon?

The statically linked version has been uploaded

@lzhiyong Great, thank you! I will drop you a note later whether about whether everything works as it should.

@lzhiyong Just want to confirm that the new libraries work fine and I could successfully update my projects to API 35.
