[ale] Android Studio for Centos 6.7?

[Michael Potter]

I do my mobile development in VMs for precisely this reason.  The build
tools change too quickly and likely to break other things on my machine.
Operating system updates also break the build tools.

I keep multiple VMs and then install all new tools on a new VM.  Then
migrate each app to the new VM as work needs to be done on it.

Then I can get a new host machine and simply copy the VMs to the new host
and all certificates and build environments remain unchanged.

Once all apps are migrated to the new VM I delete the older VM.
