   To make things work:
   
   * You need the new commandlinetools, 6514223 or newer should work.   
   * You need to place the tool directory inside in `/opt/android/cmdline-tools` (when `/opt/android` is the SDK root).
   * You need to update the paths, especially `/opt/android/cmdline-tools/tools/bin` (when `/opt/android` is the SDK root) must come before everything else. This is because there are **2** sdkmanager binaries in the complete SDK and the old one in `tools/bin` does not work. It produces the stacktrace quoted above.
   
   Install instructions:
   
   ```
   $ unzip commandlinetools-linux-6514223_latest.zip 
   $ mkdir -p /opt/android/cmdline-tools
   $ mv tools /opt/android/cmdline-tools
   $ export PATH="/opt/android/cmdline-tools/tools/bin:$PATH"
   ```
   
   Then, use sdkmanager to install all required dependencies.
   
   PATH configuration:
   ```
   export PATH="/opt/android/tools:$PATH"
   export PATH="/opt/android/tools/bin:$PATH"
   export PATH="/opt/android/platform-tools:$PATH"
   export PATH="/opt/android/emulator:$PATH"
   export PATH="/opt/android/cmdline-tools/tools/bin:$PATH"
   
   export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT="/opt/android"
   ```
