I'm trying to install Android SDK, but it doesn't work.

I'm following this gist: https://gist.github.com/wenzhixin/43cf3ce909c24948c6e7

When I run the ./android command, I just get:

java.lang.NullPointerException
    at java.io.File.<init>(File.java:277)
    at com.android.sdklib.internal.avd.AvdManager.parseAvdInfo(AvdManager.java:1623)

    at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.run(Main.java:151)
    at com.android.sdkmanager.Main.main(Main.java:117)

My Java version:

java version "1.7.0_80"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_80-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.80-b11, mixed mode)

My ~/.bash_profile

[[ -s "$HOME/.profile" ]] && source "$HOME/.profile" # Load the default .profile

#[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" # Load RVM into a shell session *as a function*
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"
export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build/bin:$PATH"

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle

Any idea here?

I'd recommend to install Oracle JDK 8.

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer

According to the instructions, the Java version required for Android SDK and Android Studio, is 1.8. You need to install that one.
