Hi , in my last build I have a fail about the android sdk build tools. How can I accept the license from Bitrise?

> Checking the license for package Android SDK Build-Tools 24.0.1 in /opt/android-sdk-linux/licenses  
> Warning: License for package Android SDK Build-Tools 24.0.1 not accepted.

> FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

> - What went wrong:  
> A problem occurred configuring project ‘:app’.
> 
> > You have not accepted the license agreements of the following SDK components:  
> > [Android SDK Build-Tools 24.0.1].  
> > Before building your project, you need to accept the license agreements and complete the installation of the missing components using the Android Studio SDK Manager.  
> > Alternatively, to learn how to transfer the license agreements from one workstation to another, go to [Exporting licenses - Android Studio Project Site](http://d.android.com/r/studio-ui/export-licenses.html)

Thanks I just had to replace my sdk build tools. 24.0.1 was not supported but it was working last week. It may be interesting (if possible for you) when we run a build, that you inspect the code before to check the build tools version, and report the problem directly : something like WRONG SDK BUILD TOOLS, please update it in your code.

Absolutely, that’s a great idea!

We have a new step, now mentioned in [Weekly Virtual Machine / Stack updates - 2017.01.14](http://discuss.bitrise.io/t/weekly-virtual-machine-stack-updates-2017-01-14/139), which can auto detect the required build tools and a couple of other packages, and auto install those for you (accepting the license as well).
