The Cloud SDK component manager only works if you don't install the SDK through another package manager. If you want to use the component manager, you can install using one of these methods:

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/downloads#versioned

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/downloads#interactive

Additional packages are available in our deb and yum repos so all the same components are available, you just need to use your existing package manager to install them:

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/downloads#apt-get

https://cloud.google.com/sdk/downloads#yum
