[Android] Build VLC for Android

[pankaj bansal]

Hi

I tried with Ubuntu 14.04. I am still getting some errors.

First is when I try to install package "protobuf", it says its not able to
find it. I installd it manually from google projects
https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/. I installed version "protobuf-2.6.0"
After installing I am still getting some errors. When I try to build, one
thing I see is it again checks out and builds libraries like protobuf,
libtool, ant etc though they are already installed. Is this supposed to
happen ?

Actually I dont really get errors, I get some warnings and then build
process stops saying the following. So I don't get any error and the build
process stops.

Libraries have been installed in:

 /home/pankaj/Documents/android/android/vlc/contrib/arm-linux-androideabi/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
