I couldn't find one yet but I saw https://github.com/nextcloud/android/issues/16421 while looking about the filename size errors I got on my linux mint while on mac it seems fine which is what I used to test AGP 9.0.0 earlier.

I will open an issue on Google's issue tracker and see what they say as well
