What's the recommended way?
I tried:
- Buildozer on Arch Linux: I've setup a Python3 venv in order to install Buildozer and additional packages => fails on crystax-ndk, because it seems to contain Python3.5, but Arch Linux has 3.6?
- Buildozer on Ubuntu 17.10: Similar issue
- Virtual Machine (for Android/buildozer): The Ubuntu in this VM is out of support since mid January 2018. I could not install additional packages.
Is there a newbie friendly way I am missing?
Cheers
Guido

Thanks a lot. At least the example (touchtracer) works. Unfortunately my application immediatly exits. The output from "buildozer ... logcat" totally floods my terminal. So I could not find out the cause yet.
However, I specified "astropy" as a required package, which would in turn require Numpy. I am not sure if I need to specify it as well. If I do so, buildozer fails with:
"
[INFO]: No existing dists meet the given requirements!
[INFO]: No dist exists that meets your requirements, so one will be built.
[ERROR]: Didn't find any valid dependency graphs.
[ERROR]: This means that some of your requirements pull in conflicting dependencies.
[ERROR]: Exiting.

OK, just found out that logcat output filtering can be specified in buildozer.spec:
"android.logcat_filters = *:S python:D"
That helps!
And it's indeed Numpy that is missing, but I have no clue yet how to prevent the above error message.

The numpy recipe is not currently compatible with python3crystax.

Very unfortunate! It does not look like it gets fixed anytime soon. It's broken for Python3 for at least a year from what I see.
It would have been quite handy to do some image processing. A lotof other packages also depend on Numpy.
Switching back to 2.7.x is also not really a road I want to travel.
Why is it currently incompatible? Probably not something simple. It would have been fixed by now.
