Kivy builds failing

[nocarryr]

Builds against kivy's current master branch (as of e0c77c8) are failing with tracebacks similar to this:

Since it's related to kivy.clock, I tried setting the version in the kivy recipe to one before this PR and all seemed well.

I realize this should probably be an issue opened in the kivy repo, but the ImportError only occurs in p4a builds (tested current master on desktop).

i found that when i use this "pip install python-for-android" to install python-for-android it would ok, while when i use "pip install git+https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android.git" to install it would reproduce this issue

I can reproduce this now, but not sure what's causing it. Will investigate.

[inclement]

I think I've just fixed this, would either of you be able to test with the master branch?

There may still be problems with bootstraps other than SDL2, I will fix these tomorrow (but wanted to get sdl2 working ASAP).

Closing after no activity and apparently was fixed by @inclement.
Feel free to reopen if it's still an issue on master.
