[PyQt] Debugging PyQt application on Android

I can confirm that the version of Qt version I tested with works perfectly
fine on Android using Qt/C++. Debugging a Qt/C++ application from Qt
Creator also works great via gdb.

As for PyQt, there is no mentioning of any specific version being supported
or tested with Android:
http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/pyqtdeploy/overview.html It only says
android-32 is supported (I guess this means 32bit arm?). This doesn't
really help as there are many different Android API versions for both SDK
and NDK. I know from other projects that choosing the right NDK and SDK
versions makes a project run or not. Therefore, it would be great if the
guide would mention the versions pyqtdeploy has been tested with.

I also tried adb logcat for debugging, but unfortunately, that's only
helpful if the application is already started and not if exiting during
start. It looks like it's exiting cleanly as neither logcat nor the phone
UI shows an error message.
