I am trying to convert my kivy program into apk with buildozer.
I'm doing this via google colab by following this instruction, but having some problems with the requirement here is the module name "collections".
Here is the error:
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement collections (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for collections
I have been looking for this bug the whole day but no result found. Any help would be very appreciated since I need it for my career.
Here is the full traceback and exception given:

Okay, so I figure out what is going on now.
There are 2 problems that I need to solve:
First: bulldozer only support some GUI modules excluding "Tkinter" which I'm trying to download in the requirements section. Because my program is half in Kivy (supported) and half in Tkinter (not supported) so it's not going to launch even converting into an APK file.
So you will need somehow replace Tkinter with Kivy or at least delete the Tkinter part in your code. And not to mention it anywhere with Buildozer.
Second: You don't need to include the "collections" module or other modules that are downloaded with python when you install it, for example: "random", "os", "csv", "collections", etc. Only kivy and modules that you need to do pip install when you use it in IDE should be put in the requirements section (here is spec file) with a specific version (kivy==2.0.0).
