Running on Ubuntu, I'm getting this error:
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:
libGL error: unable to load driver: i965_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: i965
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

Platform-tools is the latest.
Emulator image uses https://dl.google.com/android/repository/sys-img/google_apis/x86_64-24_r08.zip
and it's on Android N.
Update (Dec 2, 2016): @Sébastien's solution no longer works but gives:
Cannot launch AVD in emulator.
Output:

If I disable GPU based rendering and switch to software based GL graphics, there is this runtime error:
Firebase API initialization failure.
