This was discussed on IRC, and since we already need to build framework-res.apk for android.jar (it is extracted and the contents are included as-is in the jar), we can also have a separate package for it, which I have ready at: https://gitlab.com/cde/debian_android-tools_android-platform-frameworks-base/commit/1ea978033eb92e0c7c14f1ca40c61d84b2a2e7f1
i also have made changes to apktool to use that, however I need to make some changes based on the feedback I got.

I have a patch locally that makes it use ~/.local/share/apktool, can update it / push it as preferred. > > _______________________________________________ > Android-tools-devel mailing list > android-tools-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/android-tools-devel
