#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without

#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

Hmm, it worked for me... I didn't specify the version python and it just defaulted to 3.8, like thus:

requirements = python3,pygame,hostpython3,numpy,jnius,sdl2,sdl2_image,sdl2_mixer,sdl2_ttf

However, I've just noticed that you are trying to get pygame on 'ios'. This is currently impossible as it only works with android, certainly as far as I'm aware :S

Well, what I've noticed is you have a lot of ios specific things in the list. I set my the following for android specific:

(int) Target Android API, should be as high as possible.

android.api = 29

android.ndk = 19b

(int) Android NDK API to use. This is the minimum API your app will support, it should usually match android.minapi.

i have given only buildozer -v android debug it is for android .i want to do only for android ...ok i will try with your buildzer.spec

OK, I'll leave a copy of my buildozer.spec file for your perusal (you can examine for important differentials with your own which might help)

Profiles

#

You can extend section / key with a profile

For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without

HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name

and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.

#

[app@demo]

title = My Application (demo)

#

[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]

images/hd/*

#

Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:

#

buildozer --profile demo android debug

`

OK, I'll leave a copy of my buildozer.spec file for your perusal (you can examine for important differentials with your own which might help)

List as sections

You can define all the "list" as [section:key].

Each line will be considered as a option to the list.

Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.

Instead of doing:

[app]

source.excludepatterns = license,data/audio/.wav,data/images/original/_

This can be translated into:

[app:source.exclude_patterns]

license

data/audio/_.wav

data/images/original/_

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Profiles

You can extend section / key with a profile

For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without

HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name

and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.

[app@demo]

title = My Application (demo)

[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]

images/hd/*

Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:

buildozer --profile demo android debug

` ImportError: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "pow" referenced by "color.so"...

when i am running it in android 8 it is running fine

but when i am running in android 5.1 it shows error ..shown below (run time )
