       | Calyx in the entire article. Why was the original headline not
       | used?

       | Edit: looks like it was changed between my read and my comment.
       | Nevermind!

       | This is great! I hope some of this work goes towards building a
       | good free android sdk for debian. Last time I checked, the debian
       | sdk was stuck on a really old android version, and the android
       | rebuilds project relied on prebuilt compilers from google (hello
       | ken thompson attack).
       | 
       | Speaking of, how do they deal with java dependencies? Last I
       | checked gradle there was simply no way to tell it to build things
       | from source, instead pulling hundreds of prebuilt java binaries,
       | with native libraries and all.
