Description

After upgrading the cordova and the npm of my machine (Ubuntu 15.10) I can not build a new project with the cordova. The build accuses an error in graddle.
I did some research and found some possible solutions. Solutions like changing the version and url graddle repo. Anyway, it did not work.
I am using the cordova 6.0.0 and npm 1.4.21.
Below commands of fresh cordova app installation:

soufraz@atlantis:~/Projects/apps$ cordova create test com.somename.test Test
Creating a new cordova project.
soufraz@atlantis:~/Projects/apps$ cd test/
soufraz@atlantis:~/Projects/apps/test$ cordova platform add android
Adding android project...
Creating Cordova project for the Android platform:
Path: platforms/android
Package: com.somename.test
Name: Test
Activity: MainActivity
Android target: android-23
Android project created with cordova-android@5.1.0
Discovered plugin "cordova-plugin-whitelist" in config.xml. Installing to the project
Fetching plugin "cordova-plugin-whitelist@1" via npm
Installing "cordova-plugin-whitelist" for android

This plugin is only applicable for versions of cordova-android greater than 4.0. If you have a previous platform version, you do not need this plugin since the whitelist will be built in.

soufraz@atlantis:~/Projects/apps/test$ cordova build
ANDROID_HOME=/home/soufraz/Install/android-sdk-linux
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64
