androidx.graphics:graphics-path 16 KB page-size fix: upgrade to 1.0.0
Artifact androidx.graphics:graphics-path · measured 2026-10-01 · all libraries
fixed
androidx.graphics:graphics-path versions up to and including 1.0.0-beta02 that we measured ship 4 KB-aligned native libraries (offending for Google Play's 16 KB page-size requirement). The first measured aligned stable version is 1.0.0; the newest measured, 1.1.0, is aligned.
- The boundary is not exact: only prerelease or unlisted versions lie between the last offending and the first aligned version, so an earlier aligned stable version cannot be ruled out.
- Sampled, not exhaustive: 11 of 11 published versions were measured with native code; unmeasured versions in between are unknown.
Measured evidence
| Version | Library file | p_align | File date | Source | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Last offending | 1.0.0-beta02 | jni/x86_64/libandroidx.graphics.path.so | 4 KB (2^12) | Wed, 10 Jan 2024 18:00:00 GMT | artifact |
| First aligned | 1.0.0 | jni/arm64-v8a/libandroidx.graphics.path.so | 16 KB (2^14) | Wed, 06 Mar 2024 18:00:00 GMT | artifact |
p_align is the smallest PT_LOAD segment alignment of the ELF. 16 KB-compatible needs at least 16384 (2^14). Method: min PT_LOAD p_align of arm64-v8a/x86_64 .so inside the published AAR/JAR; aligned = >=16384 for every lib. Dates are repository file times, not official release dates.

The Gradle change
implementation("androidx.graphics:graphics-path:1.0.0")an aligned version, lowest measured above the last offending one; newer measured versions are aligned too (latest 1.1.0). Check: ./gradlew :app:dependencyInsight --dependency graphics-path --configuration releaseRuntimeClasspath
Confirm what Gradle actually resolves, since another dependency may pull an older version:
./gradlew :app:dependencyInsight --dependency graphics-path --configuration releaseRuntimeClasspathRe-verify it yourself
