Linux Mint something wrong with my .bashrc

The path of my .basrc file is

/home/vamsi/.bashrc

It is weird that my file has nothing but the path I set. I think I am using a file at the wrong location or that I have lost my .bashrc file as none of the environment variables set here seem to work.

#ANDROID_DEV
ANDROID_HOME=/opt/android-sdk-linux
export ANDROID_HOME
PATH= $PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_HOME/tools
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export PATH
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/build-tools
export PATH

#MAVEN-PATH
M2_HOME=/opt/apache-maven-3.1.0
export M2_HOME
M2=$PATH:$M2_HOME/bin
export M2

I was prompted to install maven2 in order to use mvn, but the android command cannot be found. Could you please help me find a solution to this issue.

EDIT:

Meanwhile,I tried this:

export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/android-sdk-linux/tools

Now,the output of $PATH echoes:

bash: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools:/opt/android-sdk-linux/build-tools: No such file or directory

NOW WORKING:
1. Used ANDROID_HOME instead of ANDROID_SDK_HOME
2. Removed space between = $PATH
3. Ran echo $PATH
4. Logged out and logged back in
5. Opened the terminal and tried android list targets

What are you trying to do? If "vamsi"is your username, .bashrc is in right place. – khajvah – 2013-10-27T14:18:30.833

what does echo $PATH give you? – jbat100 – 2013-10-27T14:19:26.873

What has android do with your computer? Explain your problem – khajvah – 2013-10-27T14:19:29.667

I would like to add the Android sdk path to my environment variables in linux as I would like to try developing apps with ant and the sdk using a text editor of my choice. – vamsiampolu – 2013-10-27T14:52:40.180

2Your .bashrc is almost fine, there is one error, there should be no space between PATH= $PATH, change that to PATH=$PATH. To check if an environment variable has been set, run echo $PATH, not $PATH by itself. Now, what exactly do you want to add to your path and what makes you think it is not working? – terdon – 2013-10-27T15:32:49.917

As a side note, PATH is usually set at login time for example in .bash_profile, not .bashrc. – Cristian Ciupitu – 2013-10-27T16:03:27.647
