on AOSP13 it was working

Description

Android on screen keyboard is not opening.

In the logs:

probably leading to

Can't figure out how to allow keyboard to load that lib from /product/lib64/libjni_latinime.so

Additional context

Build based on instructions at #848 (comment)

[rinigus]

Note that moving the lib into /product/app/LatinIME/lib/arm64/libjni_latinime.so would fix the bug. No idea when such location was introduced or whether there was some other change that resulted in non-working keyboard

Google has provided a fix for this in the main branch, but they haven't backported it yet.
On the other hand, we can solve this by defining the proper PRODUCT_SHIPPING_API_LEVEL for each platform. But this requires providing some changes to the common repository. I'll do it as soon as possible.

Great find, thank you very much!

Unfortunately I can't send a patch yet. For this we need a bump version of [email protected] to AIDL or at least to version 1.6 for kernel 5.15 devices, and for this we need fresh blobs
