Hello Ruben,
There is at least one missing package in Trisquel 8 for Android development:
https://blog.replicant.us/2017/04/there-wont-be-a-replicant-6-0-sdk-because-there-is-already-something-better/#comment-2447016
It is currently not possible to set up Android Developer Tools in Eclipse with Trisquel 8 due to the missing package (and possibly other issues too).
I tried building the package from source, but there was a build dependency that is not recent enough in Trisquel: gradle-debian-helper (>= 1.4~). What about adding these packages to the backports repo?
Thanks, : )
Andrew
Trisquel 8.0 support ended in April 2021.
Please open a new issue in case it remains on the current supported
release.
Cheers!
Correction: the Android SDK in Debian appears to be incomplete as well. It's missing the emulator, so the ADT Eclipse plugin cannot be used with it.
