A couple of months ago, Canonical released Ubuntu Developer Tools Center (UDTC), a project to "enable quick and easy setup of common developers needs on Ubuntu". Using it, you can easily install Android Studio and the Android SDK in Ubuntu and, with the latest version, Eclipse and Android ADT (for Eclipse).
In the release announcement, Didier Roche, Software Engineer at Canonical, mentioned that for now, Canonical is focusing on Android developers, but more will follow, like Go developers, web developers, Dart and more.

Install Ubuntu Developer Tools Center
The latest Ubuntu Developer Tools Center 0.1 is available in the Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet repositories.
For Ubuntu 14.10 and 14.04, you can install the latest Ubuntu Developer Tools Center by using a PPA:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:didrocks/ubuntu-developer-tools-center
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-developer-tools-center
Thats it. You can now use UDTC to install Android Studio, Eclipse and add Android adt support (through eclipse).
Install Android Studio by using the following command:
udtc android
Then, choose the installation path (or use the default path), accept the license ("a") and UDTC will do the rest, installing Android Studio and Android SDK. UDTC will even add Android Studio to the Unity Launcher.
Update: the latest Android Studio doesnt ship the sdk with it anymore so for now youll have to download it manually. Hopefully future UDTC versions will have a solution for this.
To install Eclipse (Eclipse Luna 4.4 at the time Im writing this article), simply use the command below:
udtc ide eclipse
After installing it (just like with Android Studio), UDTC will add Eclipse to the Unity Launcher.
For
Android ADT support (through Eclipse), use the following command:
udtc android eclipse-adt
If you want to remove a framework, simply append "--remove" to the commands above. For example, to remove Eclipse, use the following command:
udtc ide eclipse --remove
