os: openSUSE tumlbeweed linux
p4a version: git master
android ndk version: r17c

I tried to build apk with p4a:
p4a apk --private /home/z/pproj/paradox_ssh/ --version=1.7 --bootstrap=sdl2 --local-recipes=./recipes --requirements=python3,kivy-async,openssl,sqlite3,pil,requests,sdl2,plyer --whitelist=./whitelist.txt --permission=CALL_PHONE --permission=INTERNET --orientation=portrait --package=org.spbelect.paradox2 --name="paradox2" --release

The build failed with an error:

/home/u1/.local/share/python-for-android/build/other_builds/freetype/armeabi-v7a__ndk_target_19/freetype/src/bzip2/ftbzip2.c:52:19: fatal error: bzlib.h: No such file or directory
#include <bzlib.h>
^
compilation terminated.

full p4a stdout: https://gist.github.com/Fak3/5fca7ea090ddcc78be30571c8f4f91d8

I do have bzlib headers installed:

> rpm -ql libbz2-devel
/usr/include/bzlib.h
/usr/lib64/libbz2.so
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/bzip2.pc
/usr/share/doc/packages/libbz2-devel
/usr/share/doc/packages/libbz2-devel/CHANGES
/usr/share/licenses/libbz2-devel
/usr/share/licenses/libbz2-devel/LICENSE

But somehow recipe cannot find the headers
