New description:

 We found a reproducibility issue on Android with the switch to Firefox 68
 ESR and the respective toolchain and fixed it by using an `apktool`
 downloaded from the Internet. We should remove that workaronud and replace
 it with a better one (e.g. by switching our compile environment to Debian
 Buster and using the means the distro provides us with).
