Configuration on demand is an incubating feature.

I am running Debian Stretch 64 bit attempting to run a React Native Android application. The fix for me is I had to run the following command,

sudo apt-get install zlib1g:i386

If anyone else stumbles across this thread with the same situation as me I thought it would save them some pain.

Fixed it by downgrading gradle to 23.0.3.

http://dl.google.com/android/repository/build-tools_r23.0.3-linux.zip

Downloaded it and extracted it in android-sdk/buildtools replaced the buildToolsVersion to "23.0.3".

And it worked.
