It works, if you choose CI configs carefully at least

Here’s a travis config using android emulators with hardware acceleration (that is, KVM virtual machines with nested virtualization) functioning now. [https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/blob/master/.travis.yml](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/blob/master/.travis.yml)

A build running it [https://travis-ci.org/ankidroid/Anki-Android/builds/606100691](https://travis-ci.org/ankidroid/Anki-Android/builds/606100691)

All the knowledge it took to produce documented here [https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/pull/5594](https://github.com/ankidroid/Anki-Android/pull/5594)
