BACKENDS: Android - kyra.dat error on loading EOB

Description

Running the latest Android nightly build. I get an error regarding kyra.dat when trying to load EOB; saying it's either missing or corrupt. Is this possible side-loading an APK? Was I supposed to place it somewhere myself?

The same data works fine on my 1.7.0 Linux build.

Ticket imported from: bugs/6811.

ScummVM searches the Extra Path defined, the game data directory and the current directory for these engine data files.

Do you have a kyra.dat in your game data directory? If so, you need to ensure it is the latest from here: https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/tree/master/dists/engine-data

I have checked the latest APK from the buildbot. Since APKs are just zip files, you can decompress them and see for yourself.

kyra.dat is included as assets/kyra.dat ...

Android implements "addSysArchivesToSearchSet". So, it should pick up the bundled version if it's installed correctly. Probably something is broken there.

Adding kyra.dat to your game directory is a workaround. It shouldn't be needed for most platforms ScummVM runs on.

Adding kyra.dat manually from github fixed the issue, thanks!

This should never have been closed-invalid. This is a legitimate bug that still persists up through version 1.9.0. Putting kyra.dat (a ScummVM file) into the game data directory (where files from the game go) is a workaround, not a fix.

Reproduced with Kyra 2 demo, using curent master (2e675468) This may be because AndroidAssetArchive is case sensitive.
