The Android job in the CI currently fails with a compilation error (see, for example, https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/actions/runs/21314048084/job/61358741807?pr=10464#step:11:3573) after nextest was updated:

error[E0283]: type annotations needed
[2026-01-24 13:48:47]   --> /data/data/com.termux/files/home/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-1949cf8c6b5b557f/nextest-runner-0.104.0/src/rustc_cli.rs:50:44

The issue has already been reported and fixed upstream (nextest-rs/nextest#2990), though the maintainer recommends to use --locked (nextest-rs/nextest#2990 (comment)).

GNU testsuite comparison:

Skip an intermittent issue tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate (fails in this run but passes in the 'main' branch)

It seems there is prebuilt of nextest for Android arm64. Why do not we use Android arm64 on ubuntu-24.04-arm runner?

@oech3 I don't know, it's probably because until recently we also run the tests on Android x86. There is the following comment in util/android-commands.sh:

# We need to install nextest via cargo currently, since there is no pre-built binary for android x86

Yes. I considered siwtching to arm to avoid it.
