[Qbs] Qtc: Cannot find the androiddeploy Json file

[Raphael Cotty]

Hi,
The json file used in android_support.qbs is an input file used by the
androiddeployqt tool to generate the apk.
Here, the term deploy refers to gathering all the qt dependencies (qt libs,
plugins...) in a directory in order to generate the apk.

The json file you talk about looks more to me to something linked to the
deployment on the target.
Any idea of the json file name when it works?
Raph
