Do:

toolchain build freetype==2.10.0

before building kivy.

The version freetype that comes with kivy-ios is not available, so changing the version will help.

Hi,

thanks for your answers. When i try to build freetype==2.10.0 i get this. When i first change the directory in terminal to .cache it seems to work. What is the difference? Also the version of freetype is a different. How can i update the current 2.5.5 to the recommended 2.10.0 ?

Try "toolchain clean freetype" first before building.

If it does not work, navigate to: " /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/kivy_ios/recipes/"

open the "init.py" and change the version of freetype in this file.

once done, try: "toolchain build freetype".

MAKE SURE TO CLEAN FREETYPE (toolchain clean freetype) AFTER EACH ATTEMPT THAT DOES NOT WORK.
