Android build error: unknown package filter

Question

update: Might be of interest that I also got a similar error:
"Error: Ignoring unknown package filter 'extra-android-m2repository'" on this line:

android update sdk --filter extra-android-m2repository --no-ui --force > /dev/null  

but I resolved that one by updating the sdk tools to rev. 23. The original error stays though.

I have an Android build job running on travis.ci continuous integration. It used to workefine, but recently it has started throwing an error:
"Error: Ignoring unknown package filter 'sysimg-19'"

on this line:

echo yes | android update sdk --all --filter sysimg-19 --no-ui --force > /dev/null

which then leads to the android create avd command to fail with:
"Valid ABIs: no ABIs. Error: Invalid --abi armeabi-v7a for the selected target."

I also tried it without the --all flag, but it leads to the same result.
I suppose the cause may be some changes in the Android SDK I am not aware of. Does anyone have a hint what the problem may be?

See my full travis.yml below.

I found a solution myself: Due to renaming of system images in the Android SDK the line

- echo yes | android update sdk --all --filter sysimg-19 --no-ui --force > /dev/null

should be:

- echo yes | android update sdk --all --filter sys-img-armeabi-v7a-android-19 --no-ui --force > /dev/null

To fix the other issue with extra-android-m2repository was solved when I updated the sdk tools to revision 23:

- wget http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r23-linux.tgz
- tar xzf android-sdk_r23-linux.tgz
