Building an Android APK in buildozer from Kivy/Python source code

[dlw...@gmail.com]

Hello!

I am  trying to move a python/kivy app from a virtual machine to android device. Here is what I did:

Type git clone https://github.com/kivy/buildozer.git

         cd buildozer

         sudo python2.7 setup.py install

to get buidozer. Then change the project directory from the shared folder to code/kivy/examples/demo and then type buildozer init to get buildozer spec and finally type buildozer android debug deploy run to build the apk. I got the following error message:

Run prebuild

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
