-1.8+snapshot-20150429.sh': No such file or directory<br>
<br>
The problem is that the output name for buildtools-tarball has ${DATE} in it.<br>
So if populate_sdk_ext task is executed but buildtools-tarball is not rebuilt,<br>
the above error appears.<br>
<br>
Instead of hardcoding ${DISTRO_VERSION} which consists of ${DATE} in the<br>
install_tools() function, we should find the latest buildtools-tarball based<br>
on the modification time and install it.<br>
