I have installed buildozer on my computer (follow the https://buildozer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation.html), and I want to build an app, well, it failed.

It is my first run, the messages

So, it just hangs at that download step if you don't interrupt it?

[Simon]

yeah, just hangs up, I found similar report issue https://github.com/kivy/buildozer/issues/198 

I thought just because our awesome country blocked the google cause the problem (I can use VPN before, now, can not). I think maybe set the proxy would work, but I do not know how to do it.

I will test it later when I back home, just let it hangs all night to see what happened.

EDIT:

It would hangs up

I am not sure my thought is right, I want to download the sdk myself manually, then put it in /.buildozer/android/platform/android-sdk-20/platforms/ , then comment out        

# self.info('Install platform')
# self.target.install_platform()

to check it works or not. but I really can not use vi, in fact I am new to linux, I even do not know how to modify the read-only file. I tried, but failed :( Maybe I should go back to my vm

[Steven Lu]

Agree with you Simon, I get exactly same error with you, and in linux like Ubuntu you can use Gedit exactly same like notepad++ in windows, also many other text edit tools link HERE.
VPN I using is ShadowsocksR-4.6.1-win, VMWare Ubuntu 16.0.4 64 with set Network Proxy in net bridge and can access both host and VM to www.google.com.
What I'm trying to do now is download android studio linux to see if I'm luck.

I have the same problem, though I can access https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list-2.xml on web browser...

Do you guys have any suggestions?

Thank you.
