The packager is already compiled in; only CORONABUILDER_HTML5 was missing, so the binary answered that HTML5 builds are not supported on this operating system.
Defines CORONABUILDER_ANDROID, adds the Rtt_AndroidSupportTools.c the factory calls from inside that gate, gives the AndroidValidation path and GetResourceDirectory() a Linux arm — the latter ran off the end of a function returning const char*, killing the build in free() with no diagnostic.
The Android packager reads it from disk rather than through LUA_SOURCES, so without it every build stops at "Could not find script file".
The paths start empty, so appending left the builder writing to /Documents and its three siblings, which only root can create; they now go under TMPDIR, one directory per uid (first reported in coronalabs#891).
A capture is tagged kBGRA but the packed readback lands in memory as A,R,G,B, so the byte-order writers swapped red and green and took blue from the alpha byte; the Linux writer now reports kARGB, which savePNG and saveJPG grow a case for.

Everything Solar2DBuilder needs to build HTML5 and Android apps on Linux, plus
the a fix for broken colours in
display.save()on the Simulator in Linux.This supersedes #891, which enables the Android half.
I tested this using Docker on Linux and macOS hosts.
