#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#


#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

[joshuapaul2005]

do buildozer distclean in the terminal and it will clean SDK,ndk and ant, and after that you type 'buildozer android debug' it will download sdk,ndk and ant and then it will compile your app as normal

[jleaders]

I had a similar issue, it appeared to be that the NDK URL was broken, so I had to update my buildozer.spec to the latest recommended NDK version
The old URL:
https://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10.3.2-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

[misl6]

@jleaders
Yeah, https://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10.3.2-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 is definitely too old 😀

@SimState looks like you're using buildozer on a RPi. Unfortunately, that's not supported as Google doesn't provide a linux-arm version of the NDK.

[github-actions]

👋 @SimState, we use the issue tracker exclusively for bug reports and feature requests. However, this issue appears to be a support request. Please use our support channels to get help with the project.
Let us know if this comment was made in error, and we'll be happy to reopen the issue.

[HeaTTheatR]

Exactly the same problem I have on Mac OS. Unfortunately the problem is still not solved.

[misl6]

Exactly the same problem I have on Mac OS. Unfortunately the problem is still not solved.

#1427 included a fix for that targets this issue.

Is still happening on buildozer>=1.4.0 ? Can you open a new issue with the full traceback from buildozer ?

[HeaTTheatR]

@misl6

In the master version of the Bulldozer, the link to the NDK has changed - Downloading https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r23b-darwin .zip
It's working now.

[HeaTTheatR]

@misl6

Unfortunately, it still doesn't work. After the Bulldozer downloads the NDK, it will not unzip the package:

Therefore, the build fails with an error:

NDK looks good here, seems that the SDK is now failing. (Maybe a previous failure or something bad with the zip?)
[ Feel free to ping me on Discord ]

[HeaTTheatR]

@misl6 Yes, it looks like a temporary failure on the Internet, thanks.

[RichardKnipe]

I had a similar issue, it appeared to be that the NDK URL was broken, so I had to update my buildozer.spec to the latest recommended NDK version The old URL: https://dl.google.com/android/ndk/android-ndk-r10.3.2-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

Hi

Sorry if this is a noob question..., but where in the buildozer.spec file do you change this line? I can't seem to find a URL connected to "NDK" in the spec file. Or do you need an entirely new spec file created using the latest version of the NDK? And if so, how do you do this?
