It parses `RELEASE.TXT` to extract the NDK version. However, since the CrystaX NDK contains custom wording  in that file, it can't parse it with the same basic logic as the upstream NDK, resulting in this error: https://github.com/OSVR/android-cmake/blob/master/android.toolchain.cmake#L429 https://gist.github.com/DuFF14/999730c5b4663939bc34\r\n\r\nI imagine that part of this is a bug on the android-cmake side: it should be more resilient to the contents of `RELEASE.TXT`. However, it would be useful to the average user and possibly other scripts if the `RELEASE.TXT` file contained the value for the \"equivalent\" upstream release. I (as a human) looked at the change log HTML file which contains the version, but parsing a version out of there is a lot harder than out of the simple format in RELEASE.TXT"}}
