Cannot strip ARM binaries

[Shadow53]

I am using this action to cross-compile a CLI application (called hoard) for multiple platforms. When compiling for the armv7-linux-androideabi target, I got the following error:

strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file `hoard'

I am not sure if there is a way to strip these binaries or if stripping should be skipped for them, but either solution would be nice so I can distribute downloads for Android platforms.

Update: Just got this with the aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu target, so I'm thinking this may be for ARM or even foreign architectures in general.

Thanks for the report!

We probably need to skip strip if a target with a different architecture than the host is specified.

Or, I think it is possible to make the strip work on those architectures, but it requires additional dependencies (e.g., on arm-linux-gnueabihf-strip via gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf, aarch64-linux-gnu-strip via gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu).
So it might be better to use them when they are available and warn when they are not.

Fixed in v1.1.0.
