I'm developing a Hello World-like Android application in Scala.
I have followed the Getting Started tutorial in the SBT-Android documentation and also tried applying the recommendations from the Scala on Android book. One does everything from scratch the other does g8 Geal/android-app.
In both cases however I'm facing the same error:

I've tried several versions of sbt-android and it seems that the problem is that my Scala and sbt versions do not match.
When I visit http://scalasbt.artifactoryonline.com/scalasbt/sbt-plugin-releases/org.scala-sbt/sbt-android I can only see the scala_2.9.2 directory while my version of Scala is 2.10. My version of sbt is 0.13 while it seems it should be 0.12.
Do I need to delete Scala 2.10 and install Scala 2.9.2 and/or downgrade sbt to 0.12? Is there a solution?
sbt uses a copy of Scala that it downloads itself - it will automatically download the "right" version - so there is no need to mess around with your own installed copy of Scala.
Because this is a sbt plugin you will need to change the sbt version to the one it expects, in project/build.properties (if this file does not exist, you can just create it, with the following contents):
sbt.version=0.12.0
Make sure you reload sbt, so that the new (old) version of sbt gets loaded.
Alternatively, of course, you could try to compile sbt-android-plugin from source for sbt 0.13, by doing the opposite manoeuvre (you might need to build and publish-local some of its dependencies). It might work.
