[amirc]

Hi,
I'm running ubuntu 16, node v6.3.0 and npm 3.10.3.
I installed devkit throw npm.

devkit-core preinstall.sh throws errors during devkit init

I tried to run it with node v4 but I get the same error.

EDIT:
If after the init fails I run sudo sh scripts/preinstall.sh then the installation passes and everything seems to be working
Thanks,

I found that after this error running sudo sh scripts/preinstall.sh gave the another error about android which i fixed by installing
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

The error i got with the preinstall script was
