I will enter a new issue that lists all the new issues and the other already
existing issues that, would have they been fixed, would have allowed a

Thanks for this, Xavier!

Once you have that, in addition to posting the link back here, you may also want to ping the Mobile SIG list: https://www.python.org/community/sigs/current/mobile-sig/

Issue 26865 [1] lists issues that may have to be fixed in the perspective of a future support of the android platform.
