This is the relevant line from config.log:
> /home/angelo/android-21-toolchain-x86/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-linux-android/4.9.x/../../../../i686-linux-android/bin/ld: error: cannot find -lvidstab

Where did you install libvidstab?

No, only if you are using --disable-everything which is a debug
option that you are not supposed to use at all.

Note that your configure line looks broken, for example
using --target-os=linux if you want to build for Android
does not make sense to me.

configure allows you to specify (for example):
--enable-demuxer=matroska,image2

Could you elaborate why you are using --enable-pic?
Does it provide any advantages?

You could have asked two weeks ago:
I build for Android from time to time and never saw
an issue so far.

This makes no sense when sending a message to a
public mailing list, please remove it.
