Buildozer

[Thomas S.]

Hello, I would like to ask two questions regarding the use of Buildozer.

First, during its run-time, my app uses a predefined folder to temporarily save one or two image files. In which part of the .spec file do I have to declare it as a requirement? Is the 'requirement' entry where I would normally enter dependencies like requests, beautifulsoup etc.?

Second, I will be running the buildozer on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS, running from a bootable usb flash drive. Should I also install Python 2 or 3 before I carry out the procedure? 

Third, some people report that version 0.34 (the latest one) is still troubled by the same bug:

An unofficial patch that fixes the problem completely seems to have been posted (follow the link below). Is this unofficial patch official, meaning, is it supported by kivy's developers?

I would like to thank you, in advance, for your answers and... kivy...! 

Cheers!

You shouldn't have to do anything at all to write files in a certain folder - on the device, you have normal write permissions within the app's directory.
