 ==== Preparing the PyOtherSide project ====
-Unpack the !PyOtherSide tarball into a directory:
+Unpack the !PyOtherSide tarball and enter the resulting directory:
 {{{
 tar -xvf pyotherside-1.3.0.tar.gz
+cd pyotherside-1.3.0
 }}}
 
+Next you need a Python 3 compiled for Android, so you can build !PyOtherSide against it. I have found such Python 3 distribution on the Python 2.6 for Android project website and used it drop in library bundle for compiling !PyOtherSide.
+
+So download the lib bundle tarball to the Pyotherside folder and unpack it here:
+{{{
+wget http://www.modrana.org/platforms/android/pyotherside/guide/python3_android_libs_bundle.tar.gz
+tar xvf python3_android_libs_bundle.tar.gz
+}}}
+
+When you are done, there should be a ''libs'' folder in your ''pyotherside-1.3.0 folder''.
+
+In the next step we need to tell the project to use the Android compiled libraries instead of the system ones, so edit the ''src/src.pro'' file and replace the line reading:
+
+{{{
+INCLUDEPATH += . ../src
+}}}
+
+With this:
+
+{{{
+INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../libs/python32/build_dependencies/ . ../src
+LIBS += -L$$PWD/../libs/python32 -lpython3.2
+}}}
+
+This tells the project to use our locally available Python 3 compiled for Android instead of the system-wide Python 3 when building !PyOtherSide.
