Package: apktool
Version: 2.7.0+dfsg-7
Control: tags -1 help newcomer

Upstream changed the Gradle setup to use Kotlin files (e.g. build.gradle.kts) rather than the Groovy files (e.g. build.gradle). I spoke with upstream about the changes to the buildsystem, they said that it was about switching to Kotlin and otherwise the buildsystem is basically the same.

I think the easiest path to upgrading apktool to 2.9.3 will be to patch in the old build.gradle files and patch out the build.gradle.kts files. If someone manages to get a new enough Kotlin and Gradle into Debian, then the build.gradle.kts files should just work.
