Error: Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool

Question

Keep getting an error in the set-up wizard while trying to install android studio on Ubuntu.

"Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool."

Also, in the terminal I get this:

[ 115528]  ERROR - tRunWizard$SetupProgressStep$1 - Android Studio 1.1.0  Build #AI-135.1740770

This absolutely requires to be attached to the documentation, which is why I listed an issue about it a few months ago...

You require some 32-bit binaries, and you have a 64-bit OS version (apparently). Try:

sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6

That ran for me on Ubuntu 14.10.

The features will vary by Linux distro and version.
