This can happen if your default shell is not bash. Ensure it's the case?

Hi that there is happening me on MacOSX, the shell is bash and the example... a bare hello world which works on desktop.

I'm also having this problem with a bare hello world application

I had error messages along these lines. I discovered that you get the same error message when a folder has spaces in the name along in your project's path. I didn't see that answer in here and this thread was a good help and the right place to start. The spaces in path don't get escaped so they break buildozer in the process.

I'm using Python, Kivy and Buildozer on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I ran into this issue when freshly installing this stack (have the same stack running on Arch and worked no problem, first time)

I discovered this when checking the log, it showed it was trying to go into folder:
/media/rob/DEV/Untitled

Instead of:
/media/rob/DEV/Untitled Folder/

My project folder was the following wich failed:
/media/rob/DEV/Untitled Folder/myTestApp

Then i moved my project folder to this and worked:
/media/rob/DEV/myTestApp

Hope this helps someone who had the same error as me. It was silly and solved within minutes when tracing it back in the log. I post this here because it will still give the same distribute error at first wich is confusing.
