Installing the ADT Plugin for Eclipse under Linux Mint

If you get the following error when trying to install the ADT plugin for Eclipse:


Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

Software being installed: Android Development Tools 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534)
Missing requirement: Android Development Tools 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534 (com.android.ide.eclipse.adt.feature.group 16.0.1.v201112150204-238534) requires 'org.eclipse.wst.sse.core 0.0.0' but it could not be found



You need to install linux-tools first. Go to Help -> Install New Software, and enter http://download.eclipse.org/technology/linuxtools/update into the Work with box. Install all of the components that appear, then restart Eclipse when prompted. Now go back to Help -> Install New Software, and enter
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ into the Work with box. Go through the installation procedure again and the ADT Plugin will install successfully.

    1. What isn't it letting you install? Which version of Eclipse are you using? Let me know if you have any error messages and I'll see if I can help!
