I'm trying to build android applications with the command line tools in Windows 10. I was able to install the platform tools and the platform with the sdkmanager with no problem and also accepted all of the licenses.

But when I try to install the build tools using this command ./sdkmanager --sdk_root=C:/Android --verbose "build-tools;27.0.3" it fails and I get these messages running on verbose:

Info: Parsing C:\Android\cmdline-tools\4.0\package.xml
Info: Parsing C:\Android\platform-tools\package.xml
Info: File C:\Users\PC\.android\repositories.cfg could not be loaded.

Warning: Dependant package with key emulator not found!
Warning: Unable to compute a complete list of dependencies.

I found this question which had the same warning: Error "Dependent package with key emulator not found" while updating Android SDK and tools

But it seems that the emulator package doesn't exist anymore and I don't think it has to do with why I am unable to install the build-tools

Any help will be appreciated.

  • I ended up installing the build-tools from this website https://androidsdkmanager.azurewebsites.net/Buildtools, however I still don't know why it refused to install with the sdkmanager – DL-48 May 10 '21 at 19:04

  1. Open the bin folder

  2. On the location bar at the top, remove everything for it and type cmd

  3. Now type this command:- sdkmanager.bat "build-tools;latest" --sdk_root=../

  4. After this command, type this command:- sdkmanager.bat "platforms;android-32" --sdk_root=../

NOTE - Upper command android-32.0.0 is based on the time I am typing this

And this will work in most the cases, or try reinstalling or consider watching the video tutorials on YouTube
