Comment (by sisbell):

 Replying to [comment:45 gk]:
 > Okay, I guess we are back at the step where we take the apktool from the
 internet? Do we have something else we could try? If not, then let's stick
 to that plan (+ see boklm's feedback in comment:31).

 The original path I took was to use aapt/aapt2 directly, as the last step
 of the firefox build. I had some missing resources that crashed the apk,
 so rather than track those down, I thought decompiling/recompiling the apk
 would prove simple, since the apk has everything it needs already. I can
 certainly track these resources down with the direct aapt approach, its
 tedious but should work.

 On the plus side, we at least have a verified solution for upgrading
 Android builds to buster so all the work is not lost.
