Serious, you guys need to stop this crap.  Not offering totally useless
options is a massive improvement for Linux users.  Enabling code for out
of tree crap is not.  Please work with the Andorid ecosystem to make all
this out of tree junk go away instead of making users life painful due
to you not doing your basic work.
