 There are lots of little hacks in the final packaging steps to support
 zipaligning, zeroing out timestamps, v1 signatures and v2/v3 signatures,
 etc.  So by manipulating the APK, it'll make all those steps harder to
 deal with.

 libraries from the aars. This will require more investigation as to why it
 wasn't working.

 Could you open a ticket for that deatiling what you tried so far (and what
 did not work), so this does not fall through the cracks?
