Build task error "No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: arm-linux-androideabi" since Flutter 2.5.2

Hey,

the issue is not directly related to your extension as it seems to be a Google/Android/Flutter problem. But I didn't know where to ask since my problem specifically involve Azure DevOps and your tasks. If it's too far away in your opinion feel free to close.

Today I upgraded to Flutter 2.5.2 and the most recent Android SDK and then a new build error occured:

No toolchains found in the NDK toolchains folder for ABI with prefix: arm-linux-androideabi

A working fix for my local build was to downgrade the NDK via the SDK Manager in Android Studio. The solution is mentioned in several issues around the internet
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66922162/no-toolchains-found-in-the-ndk-toolchains-folder-for-abi-with-prefix-arm-linux

Using the version 22.0 instead of 23.0 fixes my local build.

But the same problem occurs when building in Azure DevOps. And here I am struggling to apply my fix. According to the docs there are 3 versions of NDK installed.

I don't know how to uninstall NDK in the virtual machine. Has anyone already seen (and fixed) this problem?

Thanks for any support!

Hi, that's a new error. Unfortunately Azure DevOps doesn't have any documentation regarding uninstall/install of predefined stuff.

But here is a solution which could work, you could give it a try.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Your hint was correct. I solved the problem by inserting a specific ndk version (21.4.7075529) into the build.gradle file. This version is also installed on the build VM, so the Flutter build task succeeds now.
