It’s been several times that I try to install Buildozer to convert my kivy application to APK.
I use a version of Linux from the Window Store.
After downloading all the dependencies,
I launch the install of Buildozer with the command: sudo python
setup.py install
And I get an error.
I follow this method: https://kivy.org/doc/stable/guide/packaging-android.html
Installed /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/buildozer-1.0.1.dev0-py2.7.egg

If find the solution, if i install buildozer with pyhton 3
It looks like you’ve installed buildozer for python2, whereas you only checked for the zipp module in your python3 environment.
