buildozer fails MacOS Exec format error

Versions

• Python: 3.9.12
• OS: MacOS 12.5 (Monterrey)
• Buildozer: 1.5.0

Description

I'm trying to compile some pygame python files to run on Android using buildozer. buildozer -v android debug returns an error, though I can't figure out what dependency is broken or missing:

[misl6]

Can you please try the following and report back?

• Delete /Volumes/MM/kingdoms/.buildozer folder and try again.

if the above suggestion fails:

• Delete /Volumes/MM/kingdoms/.buildozer folder.
• Install buildozer via a non-anaconda python, and run it from the non-anaconda python.
