Install Maven

On Debian/Ubuntu (as root): {{{
apt-get install maven2
}}}

Download the Android SDK

Unfortunately, the most convenient way to get the SDK is distributed by the Android ''Open Source'' Project, but that copy contains proprietary Google code and is wrapped in a restrictive proprietary license agreement. You can obtain a free SDK by following the [wiki:FreeSDK directions] in our wiki.

• [http://developer.android.com/sdk/adding-components.htmlInstall the necessary SDK support] * Include at least Android 1.1, 1.5, and 2.0 * You may need to create a `temp` directory at the top level of your SDK directory * You may also need to check the "Force HTTP" option under "Settings"

Install maven-android-sdk-deployer

This will allow us to set up a Maven dependency for particular versions of Android. {{{
export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/sdk/
}}} * Install maven-android-sdk-deployer * cd into the directory where you unpacked the maven-android-sdk-deployer sources. * Install maven-android-sdk-deployer according to the directions in the README file (either just `mvn install` for all platforms or `mvn install -P [platform]` if you want to install for just one).

• Get [http://github.com/mosabua/maven-android-sdk-deployer/archives/master the latest stable version] of maven-android-sdk-deployer
• Set your ANDROID_HOME environment variable to point to your copy of the Android SDK:

Add SDK /tools/ directories to PATH

NOTE: not sure what is the preferred way to do this. You need not only sdk/tools but also sdk/platforms/[platform]/tools/
