Research direction
The issue provides Termux build commands but names no repository file or test to update. Start by checking the existing documentation entry points and verifying the Rust nightly, Android NDK, aarch64-linux-android target, cargo-ndk, and release build steps; done means the supported instructions are documented and the command sequence works.
