ndk-build fails

[mkhademi]

when I run ndk-build, it complains from the following errors:

$ ndk-build

The problem is that although it says "command not found", "arm-linux-androideabi-gcc" exists in the above path. Even when I run "arm-linux-androideabi-gcc" directly from /.../toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/ it gives the same error of "command not found"

I also added ./toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin to my PATH but still getting the same error. Even I tried different versions of ndk (7, 7b, 6b) still same error! seems to me the above gcc is meant for 32bit machines whereas my machine is "Linux 2.6.32-37-server x86_64". but I guess the ndk package should work for both 32 and 64bit. am I right? do I need to compile or build ndk before using it? I assume downloading and unpacking is all I have to do. right? how about sdk? I just downloaded and unpacked it at the same folder that I have my ndk. do I need to configure them to work with each other?
