Answer 1

The two methods you posted are applicable for Android devices not for a computer that has Android SDKs installed to develop. You should have many Android SDKs installed on your Ubuntu machine.

The check in the terminal all the SDKs in your machine you can use sdkmanager tool:

${ANDROID_HOME}/tools/bin/sdkmanager --list

It will show you three main blocks: Installed packages, Available Packages and Available Updates.

You can use the same tool to update and install/uninstall packages too.
