How do I build kivy-remote-app?

[parthibbiswas]

How do I do this when distribute.sh has become obsolete? I deleted buildozer.spec file which comes by default and I ran buildozer init command to get the new buildozer.spec file. After setting up the buildozer file and copy pasting the requirements and even downloading the requirement files individually, I still happen to run into errors.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 90, in <module>
    setup(**params)

Is there any file which forces buildozer to use .distribute.sh? Now keep in mind that I didn't setup python-for-android directory in buildozer.spec file. Is this forcing buildozer to download python-for-android's old toolchain while it says cloning from python-for-android?

If possible, can any one share their kivy-remote-shell app?

Here's what works for me with a relatively new pull of Python-For-Android master (as of Apr 26, 2016) and the associated new toolchain:

p4a apk --sdk_dir <SDK_DIR> --ndk_dir <NDK_DIR> --android_api 16 --ndk_ver r11c
--private <PATH_TO_SOURCE> --package=org.example.remotepython
--name=RemotePython --version=0.5 --bootstrap=sdl2
--requirements=sdl2,python2,kivy,twisted,pycrypto,pyasn1
--dist_name=remotepython --permission=INTERNET`

Hope that helps!
