This is especially concerning considering that developers are more and more being directly targeted. It inherits this terrible practice from maven, which has been shown to be an easy path to exploit anyone using it. It will happily download and execute code without any kind of verification whatsoever. The most glaring issue from my point of view is the security issues in gradle.

  • setting up a Debian/Ubuntu/etc box for Android development is easier when everything is included.
  • trivial install for specific tools, like adb, fastboot, etc.
  • easy install and update channel that all Debian users already know.
