I'm trying the Xamarin.Forms. I created a Solution named "App2". The Visual Studio automatically created the following projects:
- App2 (Portable)
- App2.Droid
- App2.iOS
When I try to compile the Android Project (App2.Droid), I get the following errors:
Download failed. Please download https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/android_m2repository_r22.zip and put it to the C:\Users\pedro.costa\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Android.Support.Design\23.0.1.3 directory. App2.Droid Reason: One or more errors. App2.Droid
Please install package: 'Xamarin.Android.Support.Design' available in SDK installer. Java library file C:\Users\pedro.costa\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Android.Support.Design\23.0.1.3\embedded\classes.jar doesn't exist. App2.Droid Download failed.

I've already tried to:
- Download the android_m2repository_r22.zip file and put it on the C:\Users\pedro.costa\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Android.Support.Design\23.0.1.3 folder
- Download the file and extract it to the folder
- Delete the C:\Users\pedro.costa\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Android.Support.Design\23.0.1.3 folder and recompile project
- Delete the C:\Users\pedro.costa\AppData\Local\Xamarin\zips folder and recompile the project.
- Update the Xamarin.Android.Support.* nuget packages, but when I try it, I also get those build errors.
I've done a lot of research and it seems that the Android.Support.* folders should have files inside it, and that those files should be downloaded when the android solution is built, but it is not happening for me.
