Hi folks!
tl;dr: you don't need to run `mach package` for Android (GeckoView) any
more.
Bug 1550146 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1550146> has
landed and stuck. That ticket integrates producing the omnijar required
for Android into the build; and produces All The Things for Android work
during a `mach build`:
- GeckoView AAR
- GeckoView example APK
- test APKs
You shouldn't need to run `mach package` yourself any more. And hopefully
there's less confusion about when things happen in the (Android) build
system!
If you need to produce a Fennec APK... that still requires `mach package`.
As always, thanks to reviewers and testers: Mike Hommey, Chris Manchester,
Agi Sferro, and James Willcox.
Best,
Nick

That's great news! Many thanks to Nick and all the other folks who've
worked so hard to make our Android developer experience great.
