II'm now using android-archetypes for sometime on my (well company perk) MacBook Pro with dual boot with Ubuntu. Ubuntu was my preferred work environment, however due to mess with latest upgrade to Ubuntu 11.10 I was "forced" to work with Mac OS.

After usual setup of Android environment:

• install Android SDK
• set path variables in .bash_profile as

  export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/petermiklosko/android-sdk-mac_x86
  export PATH=$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools:$ANT_HOME/bin:$M2:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
  

• run

  android update sdk

Now that is weird, I do have ANDROID_HOME in my path variables and with same setup it does run just fine on Ubuntu...

After quick Google search I found at maven-android-plugin wiki, Getting Started, that
MacOS users: Note that for the path to work on the commandline and in IDE's started by launchd you have to set it in /etc/launchd.conf and NOT in .bashrc or something else. With little more pocking around I found reported issue 126 on their list.

You need to edit/create following file /etc/launchd.conf and set ANDROID_HOME there. YOU MUST RESTART YOUR MACHINE AFTER THIS CHANGE IN ORDER TO GET IT WORKING. For example for me it is

setenv ANDROID_HOME /Users/petermiklosko/android-sdk-mac_x86
