The command failed: tar xzf android-sdk_r20-linux.tgz

I tried to create a kivy app for Android and got this error

# Check configuration tokens # Ensure build layout # Check configuration tokens # Preparing build # Check requirements for android # Install platform # Apache ANT found at /home/ali/.buildozer/android/platform/apache-ant-1.9.4 # Android SDK is missing, downloading # Unpacking Android SDK # Command failed: tar xzf android-sdk_r20-linux.tgz # # Buildozer failed to execute the last command # If the error is not obvious, please raise the log_level to 2 # and retry the latest command. # In case of a bug report, please add a full log with log_level = 2

I understood that!

the problem was that some google services are not available where I live due to US sanctions in my country (Sudan), and the returned answer is html (not in gzip format).

The solution is to use vpn.

The device will not be able to load the Android SDK correctly.

You can confirm this by checking the sum of the md5 file:

 wget -O - http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r20-linux.tgz | md5sum

This should output: 22a81cf1d4a951c62f71a8758290e9bb

If this is not the case, I assume that you are blocked by some kind of proxy server or firewall. A proxy server can be configured to limit the maximum file size that you are trying to download. Check the logs or contact your system administrators if you are not a machine administrator.
