the keystore is in the same directory as the stack, so it should be found,
but i will try that.

This is the notification I see on my german account:
-----------------------------------------------
Deine App verwendet native Bibliotheken, die keine
16-KB-Speicherseiten unterstützen. Wenn du weiterhin Updates für deine App veröffentlichen 
möchtest, musst du sie bis zum 1. November 2025 so rekompilieren, dass sie 16 KB unterstützt.
-----------------------------------------------
Literally translated:
---------------------------------------------
Your app uses native libraries that do not support 16 kb page sizes.
If you want to publish further updates of your app, you have to (muss = must)
recompile it that way until november 1st so it supports 16 kb.
---------------------------------------------
To me this looks like two very different announcements!
Oh Google... :-/

I see the SAME info because my app does not support API 35 yet.
Maybe that has priority?

You bet! 8-)
