[homdx]

I probe compile hello world with env by @Jonast in docker:
https://github.com/JonasT/p4a-build-spaces/

./p4aspaces shell p4a-py3-api28ndk21
#p4a apk

Build without error:

Also build withour error:

#cat .p4a
--arch=armeabi-v7a
--name 'test'
--package com.example.test
--version 1
--permission=INTERNET
--requirements=python3,kivy,requests3
--private .
root@da199853fc95:~/test#

It looks like the incorrect definition of the parameters p4a --private.
They should be 2? Or it can be one?

@homdx I made an attempt to fix the odd backtrace here: #1591

[homdx]

Cannt check you pull request:

Well you need to use a minimum API level 21+, as the error says (try p4a-py3-api28ndk21)

Did you specify the --p4a option for the pull request?

[homdx]

Sorry. Dont give argument for --p4a :(

@homdx ok that is the expected output! very nice. --private needs an argument since it specifies your private data, see also [--private PRIVATE]. I just fixed that it gave that weird error backtrace instead of a proper error.

You should specify your project directory with --private where your main.py is, so just do that and it should build fine 👍
