It's our favorite, hysenbugs!

There is no repro!

Context:

Sometimes, the DebuggerAttribute"Full", False, True) unit test (and others?) will fail:

error ANDZA0000: Unable to open '/Users/runner/work/1/s/bin/TestRelease/temp/DebuggerAttribute_Full_False_True/obj/Debug/android/bin/com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.apk' as zip archive

The cause of the error is that zipalign doesn't like the file:

$ "$HOME/android-toolchain/sdk/build-tools/28.0.3/zipalign" -p 4 bin/Debug/com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.apk app-Signed.apk
Unable to open 'bin/Debug/com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.apk' as zip archive

The file does exist; it is attached here as com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.zip.

Aside: zipalign source: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build.git/+/refs/heads/master/tools/zipalign/

Lots of spitballing and investigation later, and we we see that zipdetails -vv doesn't like it:

% zipdetails -vv com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.zip # or .apk…

Unexpecded END at offset 0000C758, value 00000000
Done

It appears that either the resources.arsc entry, or the following classes.dex entry, is somehow broken; 7zip reports:

% 7z t -bb3 com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.apk
…
ERROR: Headers Error : classes.dex
…
Sub items Errors: 1

Archives with Errors: 1

Sub items Errors: 1

Something isn't kosher here.

@grendello eventually concludes:

local header for classes.dex is corrupted
the CD entry for it is fine
that's why listing the contents works fine
…
it appears the entry is preceded (or the previous entry followed) by two additional bytes
which then escalates to 9 extra bytes before the subsequent entries, but it appears to badly affect just the first entry with the extra leading bytes

It looks like this is due to something we're doing, but we're not sure what, why, or how to fix it.

At least one error was detected in com.xamarin.debuggerattribute.apk.

    unzip -t doesn't give name of the broken entry, alas.

    zipinfo -vv shows us there are extra bytes preceding classes.dex (or following the previous entry, resources.arsc. @dellis1972 notes that the broken entry follows data we add to the apk by copying it from another zip archive creted by aapt2

    We think (hope? pray?) that this was fixed by PR #7759.
