Description
It looks like zipalign utility (called from within androiddeployqt tool) does not flush it's write buffers on time, thus apksigner starts reading broken APK and throws different ZIP file format errors. Here are a few examples:
:packageRelease :assembleRelease BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 12s 29 actionable tasks: 9 executed, 20 up-to-date Exception in thread "main" com.android.apksig.apk.ApkFormatException: Malformed ZIP Central Directory record #1 at file offset 32818355 at com.android.apksig.internal.apk.v1.V1SchemeVerifier.parseZipCentralDirectory(V1SchemeVerifier.java:1782) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.getAndroidManifestFromApk(ApkVerifier.java:429) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.verify(ApkVerifier.java:176) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.verify(ApkVerifier.java:125) at com.android.apksigner.ApkSignerTool.verify(ApkSignerTool.java:466) at com.android.apksigner.ApkSignerTool.main(ApkSignerTool.java:112) Caused by: com.android.apksig.zip.ZipFormatException: Not a Central Directory record.

or (happening in QtCreator):
:packageRelease :assembleRelease BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 11s 29 actionable tasks: 6 executed, 23 up-to-date Exception in thread "main" com.android.apksig.apk.ApkFormatException: Malformed ZIP Central Directory record #1 at file offset 32826934 at com.android.apksig.internal.apk.v1.V1SchemeVerifier.parseZipCentralDirectory(V1SchemeVerifier.java:1782) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.getAndroidManifestFromApk(ApkVerifier.java:429) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.verify(ApkVerifier.java:176) at com.android.apksig.ApkVerifier.verify(ApkVerifier.java:125) at com.android.apksigner.ApkSignerTool.verify(ApkSignerTool.java:466) at com.android.apksigner.ApkSignerTool.main(ApkSignerTool.java:112) Caused by: com.android.apksig.zip.ZipFormatException: Not a Central Directory record.

Error while building/deploying project TrueFiApplication (kit: Android for armeabi-v7a (Clang Qt 5.12.0 for Android ARMv73)) When executing step "Build Android APK"
A workaround for now is to call zipalign and apksigner manually after running androiddeployqt and placing a few second sleep call in-between. I used the same commands used in signPackage function.
This problem has been only seen on macOS Mojave. Does not happen on Windows 10.
