Why does AVD need the Qt library?

Question

I've installed Android Studio 2.0 and I'm trying to create a new AVD with the following specs:

Hardware profile is Nexus 5
Marshmallow API 23 and ABI x86_64

However, when I tried to start the AVD, I got the following error :

ERROR:./android/qt/qt_setup.cpp:33:Qt library not found at ${SDK_HOME}/tools/lib64/qt/lib Could not launch '${SDK_HOME}/tools/qemu/linux-x86_64/qemu-system-x86_64': No such file or directory

Or the following if I used Marshmallow API 23 and ABI x86:

ERROR:./android/qt/qt_setup.cpp:33:Qt library not found at ${SDK_HOME}/tools/lib64/qt/lib Could not launch '${SDK_HOME}/tools/qemu/linux-x86_64/qemu-system-i386': No such file or directory

My laptop (HP probok 4530s) specs are:

Hardware: CORE i5, 6GB ram, no external Graphic card.
OS: CentOS 6.6

when you downloaded system image for your emulator there are two types of images 1. x86 either Intel or ARM and 2. with Google API system images. — Vivek Mishra, Apr 12 '16 at 07:06
@VivekMishra : I've checked it and it is installed with Google API — Mahmoud Emam, Apr 12 '16 at 07:24
@VivekMishra : I meant that the emulators are already created by these images and I got these errors — Mahmoud Emam, Apr 12 '16 at 07:30

Eh, misread. Nevermind... Read it as qemu executable not found. — Frank Osterfeld, Apr 13 '16 at 05:50

Please try running $SDK/emulator/emulator instead of $SDK/tools/emulator.

If that is the case, you should mark the question as duplicate instead of posting this answer. – Jaa-c Jan 31 '18 at 15:03
