"Unable to list target platforms." Error trying to do Android build on Linux

[twoscooperic]

I’ve downloaded the current Android Studio, ran through the wizard to install and Android SDK, and setup the External Tools Android SDK path inside Unity.

I get this error when trying to make an Android build:

Unable to list target platforms. Please make sure the android sdk path is correct. See the Console for more details. See the Console for details.

Error:Invalid command android

UnityEditor.BuildPlayerWindow+BuildMethodException: Build failed with errors.

It looks like it’s related to this issue, which is supposedly fixed, but it doesn’t work for me. I’ve tried these versions of Unity:

• unity-editor_amd64-2017.1.0xf3Linux.deb
• unity-editor_amd64-2017.2.0xb6Linux.deb
• unity-editor_amd64-5.6.1xf1Linux.deb

I’ve also tried the workaround of downgrading the Android tools to 25.2.5, but that gives me different error messages:

CommandInvokationFailure: Unable to list target platforms. Please make sure the android sdk path is correct. See the Console for more details.
