Failed repacking when building android game
Since i'm desperate and i've obtain nothing googling the problem, i have to ask what should i do about this:
Error building Player: CommandInvokationFailure: Failed to re-package resources. See the Console for details.

Package the android resources. It will read assets and resources that are
supplied with the -M -A -S or raw-files-dir arguments. The -J -P -F and -R
options control which files are output.
aapt r[emove] [-v] file.{zip,jar,apk} file1 [file2 ...]
Delete specified files from Zip-compatible archive.
aapt a[dd] [-v] file.{zip,jar,apk} file1 [file2 ...]
Add specified files to Zip-compatible archive.
aapt c[runch] [-v] -S resource-sources ... -C output-folder ...
Do PNG preprocessing on one or several resource folders
and store the results in the output folder.
aapt s[ingleCrunch] [-v] -i input-file -o outputfile
Do PNG preprocessing on a single file.
aapt v[ersion]
Print program version.
Modifiers:
-a print Android-specific data (resources, manifest) when listing
-c specify which configurations to include. The default is all
configurations. The value of the parameter should be a comma
separated list of configuration values. Locales should be specified
as either a language or language-region pair. Some examples:
en
port,en
port,land,en_US
-d one or more device assets to include, separated by commas
-f force overwrite of existing files
-g specify a pixel tolerance to force images to grayscale, default 0
-j specify a jar or zip file containing classes to include
-k junk path of file(s) added
-m make package directories under location specified by -J
-u update existing packages (add new, replace older, remove deleted files)
-v verbose output
-x create extending (non-application) resource IDs
-z require localization of resource attributes marked with
localization="suggested"
-A additional directory in which to find raw asset files
-G A file to output proguard options into.
-F specify the apk file to output
-I add an existing package to base include set
-J specify where to output R.java resource constant definitions
-M specify full path to AndroidManifest.xml to include in zip
-P specify where to output public resource definitions
-S directory in which to find resources. Multiple directories will be scanned
and the first match found (left to right) will take precedence.
-0 specifies an additional extension for which such files will not
be stored compressed in the .apk. An empty string means to not
compress any files at all.
--debug-mode
inserts android:debuggable="true" in to the application node of the
manifest, making the application debuggable even on production devices.
--include-meta-data
when used with "dump badging" also includes meta-data tags.
--pseudo-localize
generate resources for pseudo-locales (en-XA and ar-XB).
--min-sdk-version
inserts android:minSdkVersion in to manifest. If the version is 7 or
higher, the default encoding for resources will be in UTF-8.
--target-sdk-version
inserts android:targetSdkVersion in to manifest.
--max-res-version
ignores versioned resource directories above the given value.
--values
when used with "dump resources" also includes resource values.
--version-code
inserts android:versionCode in to manifest.
--version-name
inserts android:versionName in to manifest.
--replace-version
If --version-code and/or --version-name are specified, these
values will replace any value already in the manifest. By
default, nothing is changed if the manifest already defines
these attributes.
--custom-package
generates R.java into a different package.
--extra-packages
generate R.java for libraries. Separate libraries with ':'.
--generate-dependencies
generate dependency files in the same directories for R.java and resource package
--auto-add-overlay
Automatically add resources that are only in overlays.
--preferred-density
Specifies a preference for a particular density. Resources that do not
match this density and have variants that are a closer match are removed.
--split
Builds a separate split APK for the configurations listed. This can
be loaded alongside the base APK at runtime.
--feature-of
Builds a split APK that is a feature of the apk specified here. Resources
in the base APK can be referenced from the the feature APK.
--feature-after
An app can have multiple Feature Split APKs which must be totally ordered.
If --feature-of is specified, this flag specifies which Feature Split APK
comes before this one. The first Feature Split APK should not define
anything here.
--rename-manifest-package
Rewrite the manifest so that its package name is the package name
given here. Relative class names (for example .Foo) will be
changed to absolute names with the old package so that the code
does not need to change.
--rename-instrumentation-target-package
Rewrite the manifest so that all of its instrumentation
components target the given package. Useful when used in
conjunction with --rename-manifest-package to fix tests against
a package that has been renamed.
--product
Specifies which variant to choose for strings that have
product variants
--utf16
changes default encoding for resources to UTF-16. Only useful when API
level is set to 7 or higher where the default encoding is UTF-8.
--non-constant-id
Make the resources ID non constant. This is required to make an R java class
that does not contain the final value but is used to make reusable compiled
libraries that need to access resources.
--shared-lib
Make a shared library resource package that can be loaded by an application
at runtime to access the libraries resources. Implies --non-constant-id.
--error-on-failed-insert
Forces aapt to return an error if it fails to insert values into the manifest
with --debug-mode, --min-sdk-version, --target-sdk-version --version-code
and --version-name.
Insertion typically fails if the manifest already defines the attribute.
--error-on-missing-config-entry
Forces aapt to return an error if it fails to find an entry for a configuration.
--output-text-symbols
Generates a text file containing the resource symbols of the R class in the
specified folder.
--ignore-assets
Assets to be ignored. Default pattern is:
!.svn:!.git:!.ds_store:!*.scc:.*:<dir>_*:!CVS:!thumbs.db:!picasa.ini:!*~

About this error "ERROR: No argument supplied for '--extra-packages' option Android Asset Packaging Tool".
For me, it worked after I closed Unity, deleted the folder "Project-name/Assets/Plugins/Android/google-play-services_lib", and them copied the folder "android-sdk/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/google-play-services_lib" to that folder again.
I am using Unity 5 and Android SDK Build Tools version 22.0.1, and Google Play SDK 0.9.15.
This works for me. In my asset google-play-services_lib was completely missing. After importing this folder in it works now.

try to move the aapt.exe from:
C:/Users/Luca/AppData/Local/Android/android-sdk/build-tools/21.1.2/
to
C:/Users/Luca/AppData/Local/Android/android-sdk/tools
i don't know if it's going to work but i did the same with an error "ziplagin.exe" and it worked flawlessly.
Tried it but it doesnt' work:
Error building Player: CommandInvokationFailure: Failed to re-package resources. See the Console for details.
C:/Users/Luca/AppData/Local/Android/android-sdk\tools\aapt.exe package --auto-add-overlay -v -f -m -J gen -$$anonymous$$ Android$$anonymous$$anifest.xml -S "res" -I "C:/Users/Luca/AppData/Local/Android/android-sdk/platforms/android-21\android.jar" -F bin/resources.ap_ --extra-packages

I had the same problem, using Google Play Services in a new project, which I've used without problems before. The problem was that I hadn't set it up properly. After importing the package file, you MUST set up the Play Services (with application ID and whatnot) in order for it to import the proper files from your Android/Java SDK. Everything works fine now.
