Installing package dependencies on nitrous.io (Meteor's Android SDK)

So right now I'm trying to install the Android SDK to test my Meteor app and play around with mobile development. "meteor install-sdk android" installs everything but the 32 bit libraries.

~/workspace$ meteor install-sdk android

✓ Found Android bundle
✓ A JDK is installed
✓ Found Android Platform tools
✓ Found Android Build Tools
✗ 32-bit libraries not found
✓ Found Android 19 API
✓ Found suitable Android x86 image
✓ 'meteor' android virtual device (AVD) found
✗ Android emulator acceleration is not installed
(The Android emulator will be very slow without acceleration)
Platform requirements not yet met
Please follow the instructions here:
https://github.com/meteor/meteor/wiki/Mobile-Dev-Install:-Android-on-Linux#libs32

So I try to apt-get it, but get a dpkg lock error.

action@vigorous-trigger-81-209458:~/workspace$ sudo apt-get install --yes lib32z1

WARNING: sudo access is not available; running without sudo.

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
action@vigorous-trigger-81-209458:~/workspace$ rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
rm: remove write-protected regular empty file /var/lib/dpkg/lock'? yes
rm: cannot remove/var/lib/dpkg/lock': Permission denied

Is there any way that I can get these libraries installed on my Nitrous box so that I can run the android environment for Meteor?

We launched a new version of Nitrous called "Nitrous Pro" in April 2015 that has root access. You can check out some of the updates here:
