I have small app for Android that is kivy-python based. To turn it into an APK I had to use buildozer.
When I run this final step:
buildozer android debug deploy run I get this error.
I changed the NDK values in the spec files, or I changed codes. In short, what I did was looked at similar errors. I tried reported solutions and they didn't work. I don't even know what the problem is.

I solved this problem.If someone encounters this error I solved by following these steps
sudo apt update
sudo apt-get install autoconf
pip install --upgrade buildozer
sudo apt install -y git zip unzip openjdk-8-jdk python3-pip autoconf libtool pkg-config zlib1g-dev libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libtinfo5
pip3 install --user --upgrade cython virtualenv
