Most of those packages will be already installed on your machine, so you can try skipping this step and only installing those that are missing. There are some dependencies needed to successfully compile Xamarin.Android. The old versions of Mono didn't have it, so if the command was found, you're probably ready to go. You can check whether the correct version was installed by trying the msbuild command.

You'll also need nuget, so let's install that too: sudo apt install mono-complete nuget
Maybe you won't need everything, but I was lazy and went with mono-complete. Next step we install the Mono development packages. Sudo apt-key adv -keyserver hkp://:80 -recv-keys 3FA7E0328081BFF6A14DA29AA6A19B38D3D831EFĮcho "deb stable-bionic main" | sudo tee /etc/apt//mono-official-stable.list Therefore we'll have to add the official Mono repositories (it's a good idea anyway): sudo apt install gnupg ca-certificates You can also create aliases for useful commands: alias sdkmanager=~/Android/Sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanagerĪlias avdmanager=~/Android/Sdk/tools/bin/avdmanagerĪlias adb=~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools/adbĪlias android-emulator=~/Android/Sdk/emulator/emulatorĪs of October 2019, Ubuntu still doesn't have Mono 5 in its repositories. zshrc or whatever shell you use: export AndroidSdkDirectory=~/Android/Sdk You can do this by adding this line to your. You also need to set the AndroidSdkDirectory environment variable, so that Xamarin knows where to look for the installed SDKs. Then you can try building an sample app and deploying it to your phone (or to a running emulator) just to make sure everything works all right. Be sure to also install NDK, though, as that's what we will need to deploy Xamarin applications.

Now download the SDK versions you want to target. Once you have it, you can start it up and open SDK Manager in the top right corner:
#XAMARIN STUDIO ON LINUX ANDROID#
Then you have to download Android Studio and unzip it somewhere you like, for example your home folder, or /opt/androidstudio. To do so, add this line to your ~/.bashrc: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 You'll also need to set the JAVA_HOME variable to match the installation directory of your Java 8 JDK. While it's officially recommended to use Oracle Java, OpenJDK will do just fine: sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
Installation of Android Studio on Ubuntu has been covered thoroughly in a different SO answer, but I'll go over it quickly: first you need to install Java 8 JDK. (Note: In theory you could just download the Android SDK and NDK, I haven't tried it though.) In short, first of all you have to install Java, Mono and Android Studio, then you have to compile Xamarin.Android yourself and finally you have to setup your favorite IDE to work with Xamarin. Yes, you can develop with Xamarin.Android on Ubuntu! However, since Linux, sadly, isn't oficially supported by Xamarin, it's not as straightforward as it would be on Windows.
