ADT error 303: Icon banner320x180.png is missing from package when packaging tvOS

Problem Description

AIR SDK 26.0.0.118

When I package a tvOS app with ADT, I get the following error.

ADT error 303: Icon banner320x180.png is missing from package when packaging tvOS

I have an app that I'm developing for both Android TV and tvOS. In my AIR application descriptor, I have a <banner> field inside the <android> section. This specifies the Android TV banner.

When I package with apk-captive-runtime, I include the PNG file in my command line options, and it works fine. However, when I package with ipa-app-store, I don't include the PNG file in my command line options because it's not needed on tvOS. I get the error.

Because the <banner> field is inside the <android> section, it should be ignored when not targeting Android. If the <banner> field cannot be be ignored when packaging a tvOS app (or an app for any other platform), it should be moved outside the <android> section to avoid confusion. Based on the error message, it seems to be treated like an icon, so the <icon> section is a good candidate.

Known Workarounds

Workaround 1: Comment out <banner> temporarily.

Workaround 2: Include the extra PNG file when packaging, even though it is useless on tvOS
