Issue compiling kivy and kivyMD (module error)

[anonymus-coder987]

I'm making an app through bulldozer
The requirements are specified as kivy==2.3.1 , git+https://github.com/kivymd/KivyMD.git (im using 2.0.1.dev0)etc
The apk is made , but the app crashes immediately

By using logcat , it gave an error in kivys file , "no module named filetype"
It was a pure python module so I was able to just specify it in the requirements
However, after doing that the filetype error fixed but I received another module error

(Line 2 of the main.py is from kivymd.uix.label import MDlabel)

Adding materialyoucolour in the requirements is not possible

Cython is also in the requirements

It seems that the modules for kivy and kivyMD are not initialized properly

So what should I do?

Do i have to make recipes for both of them or do I have to download the file from git and add it to the requirements as a local file path?

I cannot change the version of kivyMD because of major code differences that would absolutely destroy my apps code if I change it to a lower version (for ex , the buttons and textinputs have inner functions for hint text and text respectively and the method to call them is different too)

You have to place materialyoucolor in the spec file.

👋 @anonymus-coder987,
Sorry to hear you are having difficulties with Kivy's Buildozer; Kivy unites a number of different technologies, so building apps can be temperamental.
We try to use GitHub issues only to track work for developers to do to fix bugs and add new features to Buildozer. This issue has been closed, because it doesn't describe a bug or new feature request for Buildozer.
There is a mailing list and a Discord channel to support Kivy users debugging their own systems, which should be able to help. They are linked in the ReadMe.
Of course, if it turns out you have stumbled over a bug in Buildozer, we do want to hear about it here. The support channels should be able to help you craft an appropriate bug report.
