Bumps the default Android runtime from 11.4.0 to 11.4.1.

rive-android 11.4.1 includes the fix 4b3c801 ("Fix linking issues on ARMv7 devices due to TLS relocations"), which resolves an UnsatisfiedLinkError at Rive.init on Android 9 / API 28 caused by R_ARM_TLS_DTPMOD32 (reloc type 17) relocations that the API 28 linker cannot resolve. Apps using rive-android >= 11.0.0 crash at startup on affected devices when Rive is initialized in Application.onCreate.

Changes

  • package.json: runtimeVersions.android 11.4.0 -> 11.4.1
  • README.md: update the three 11.4.0 references (defaults block, gradle.properties snippet, Expo withGradleProperties snippet) to 11.4.1

Test plan

  • Verify example app builds and runs on Android with the bumped runtime
  • Verify no startup crash on an Android 9 / API 28 ARMv7 device or emulator

rive-android 11.4.1 includes rive-app/rive-android#12175 ("Fix linking
issues on ARMv7 devices due to TLS relocations"), which resolves an
UnsatisfiedLinkError at Rive.init on Android 9 / API 28 caused by
R_ARM_TLS_DTPMOD32 relocations that the API 28 linker cannot resolve.

Fixes rive-app/rive-android#441.

FWIW Until the release is made you can customise the version used in your app, see: https://rive.app/docs/runtimes/react-native/native-version-customization
