P4a 2026 - severall problems about installation #3342
Description
Activity
Here is a compile log with targetsdk =30 (same error with targetsdk = 27)
context : Vmware ubuntu 26.0 (same result with ubuntu 22.04)
i installed p4a with pip install , i had similar result with the branch version- I installed Cython with pip3 install Cython==3.0.12 before building app apk I installed this version after i saw the p4a recipes for pyjnius and android modules: FYI the build of my app works fine in pa4 2023.05 and p4a 2024.01 but Cython version is older : Cython 0.29 for my P4a 2023. here is Cython version and path for my current P4a 2026 environment ***@***.***:~$ pip3 freeze | grep Cython Cython==3.0.12 ***@***.***:~$ locate Cython /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython-3.0.12.dist-info /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Build /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/CodeWriter.py /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Compiler /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Coverage.py /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Debugger /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Debugging.py /home/pa/.local/lib/python3.14/site-packages/Cython/Distutils …. is it a wrong path for Cython?…----------------------------------------- i join my apk build order below (it's launched by subprocerss) Subprocess.call ( ['/home/pa/.local/bin/p4a', 'apk', '--dist_name', 'listener_p4a_dist_64', '--private', '/home/pa/App-android', '--package', 'xo.p4a.mai26.listener64', '--name', 'listener', '--version', '26.5.64', '--icon', '/home/pa/App-android/listener_icon.png', '--presplash', '/home/pa/App-android/presplash.png', '--orientation', 'portrait', '--bootstrap=sdl2', '--requirements=python3,kivy,git+https://github.com/kivy/plyer.git, python-osc', '--sdk_dir', '/home/pa/android-sdk', '--android_api', '27', '--ndk_dir', '/home/pa/android-ndk-r28c', '--minsdk', '21', '--ndk-api', '21', '--window', '--enable-androidx', '--depend=androidx.core:core:1.6.0', '--permission=WINDOW', '--permission=WAKE_LOCK', '--permission=RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED', '--permission=MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE', '--permission=QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES', '--permission=POST_NOTIFICATIONS', '--permission=ACCESS_NOTIFICATION_POLICY', '--permission=ACCESS_NOTIFICATIONS', '--permission=FOREGROUND_SERVICE', '--permission=FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK', '--permission=VIBRATE', '--permission=INTERNET', '--service=myservice:./services/listener_Myservice.py:foreground:foregroundServiceType=mediaPlayback', '--arch=arm64-v8a']) Envoyé avec un e-mail sécurisé [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home).

Something is broken in build,
cythonis provided by hostpython3, which is missing, but android hashostpython_prerequisites = ["Cython>=0.29,<3.1"]-- so should have been installed before building android. But it's not. So could you clean build withP4A_FULL_DEBUG=1and then share logs?- Here is a new build.log after 'p4a clean_builds' and 'export P4A_FULL_DEBUG=1' commands Envoyé avec un e-mail sécurisé [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home).

Hello
i tried to install p4a last version 2026 in a VMware ubuntu 22.04 and 26.04
NDK tried ndk 28c as recommanded and later 29 and 25c
SDK : latest
i use python-for-android not buildozer, i installed all previous p4a versions like that
compile apk p4a 2026 crashed in all cases with major errors
error messages : no version pyjnius 1.7.0 found , no module android found, no module cython
That'all so far.
