Problem With Android Sdk On Linux With Eclipse Helios

I just installed the Android SDK on my machine. I am running Fedora 13 (64 bit) and the Android kit is r06 for Linux. I am running Eclipse Helios. I get this error when I try to

Solution 1:

I found on another forum that this might be caused by some library not present in your jdk. Their issue was solved by downloading :

lib32-libstdc++5 lib32-libx11 lib32-ncurses lib32-zlib lib32-sdl lib32-libxext

If you want more details or if these libraries does not help, check the whole topic here

Solution 2:

It is an issue with the SDK being 32 bit and my system being 64 bit. I am going to wait for the folks at Android to develop a 64 bit version before I decide to do anything with the kit.

Thanks for any help on this. Hope that the people that develop the SDK note that a lot of us may hold out for a 64 bit version. I of course, don't need it for professional reasons at this time, but I was interested. Just not interested in 32 bit computing any longer :-).

You do realize that the Android targets are all 32 bit, right? Even the nvidia tegra dual core CPU is 32bit. It's the most advanced of CPUs in current Android device, afaik.

If you hold out for 64 bit, you'll miss most of what's going on in Android development for a number of years.
