Installing android studio/android-sdk on arm64 chromebook

Question

I am trying to install android studio on a Chromebook running arm64, but right off the bat I get an "Your Android SDK is missing, out of date or corrupted". Fair enough, I go through the wizard and select the location to install through the wizard but before the install starts I get "An error occured while trying to compute required packages".

I also tried downloading android-sdk through apt install android-sdk, but when I go to pick the location nothing happens in the SDK settings, everything is greyed out and the location that I provided (usr/lib/android-sdk) is now gone again.(see photos for process)

Any ideas?

Answer 1

The solution ended up being running sudo-apt install android-sdk , moving it to /home/USERNAME/Android/Sdk and manually selecting the location.
