cmdline-tools should be a different package because it's installed at android-sdk/cmdline-tools/latest, not android-sdk/tools of this package. They show up as different packages in Android Studio SDK manager as well, and they can be installed side-by-side.

Update: The new package has been published at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/android-sdk-cmdline-tools-latest/

I'm going to update this package to 26.0.1 (it has been long-outdated), according to https://dl.google.com/android/repository/repository2-1.xml which is used by Android Studio. Some tools have been removed by upstream in this update (namely the standalone SDK Manager's GUI), and you may want to check against https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/sdk-tools.html for the breaking changes before this update. If you are using an AUR helper and you want to stay on the old version, consult your AUR helper's manual.

Hi, I think we miss the swt dependency, see for example: http://www.receptorblog.com/wordpress/get-ddms-working-on-64bit-fedora/ I needed it on my side, I don't know if it is restricted to 64bits.

Turns out I'd need to make the SDK from source in order to be able to redistribute it. Bah. This package will stay in AUR for a while to come.

Looks like it's already done. Just needs quotes around $srcdir/$pkgdir :P.

svenstaro commented on 2011-06-15 07:22 (UTC)

thestinger could you quickly pick up android-ndk and make is consistent with this package? I will then move both packages at the same time. I orphaned it for you.

Is fastboot part of the sdk (perhaps in source form)?

<deleted-account> commented on 2011-06-15 07:18 (UTC)

Could you add to this package 'fastboot' from htc? It is precompiled on this site: http://developer.htc.com/adp.html

OK. Fair enough. Thanks for the answer.

I originally added the android group because the old version of the package chown'ed the stuff to the user who built/installed the package, so I wanted to keep the ability to install stuff as non-root. It "worked", but it was broken/unsafe on a multiuser system. There would need to be a setuid/setgid wrapper for the `android` program (since it isn't native C/C++, but java), so stuff wouldn't just be installed as username:users - I'm really not sure how you would make that safe, so I decided just to KISS and get rid of it. Installing packages/updating isn't something you need to do every day, so using root/sudo is a good compromise. If you still want to use it, it's just commented out in the PKGBUILD and .install file.

Why did you remove the android group stuff? It worked like a charm. Why is running as root the prefrered way to go now?
