Build Android packages with clang

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      The gcc compiler is deprecated in the Android NDK and will at some point be removed, so we should move to using clang to build our binaries so that we do not become incompatible with future versions of the NDK.

      This will also move Qt to use the default libc++ runtime instead of gnustl, which simplifies the license terms a little.
