Description

Describe the bug
If I tried to compile my application to an app package for macOS with PyInstaller, the app crash at startup.

With the same code where i don't add the Mapview, the app don't crash.

Also in my IDE or if I am entering in app package and i am trying to launch the exec file the app is launched.

I can write in my folder tmp_dir with the app before the crash without problem.

To Reproduce

the code with crash

class RootWidget(FloatLayout):

    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        # make sure we aren't overriding any important functionality
        super(RootWidget, self).__init__(**kwargs)

        # random position
        Nord  = 51.08916667 
        Sud   = 42.33277778
        Est   =  8.23055556
        Ouest = -4.79555556
        random_latitude = random.uniform(Sud, Nord)
        random_longitude = random.uniform(Ouest, Est)
        
        # let's add a Widget to this layout
        self.tmp_dir = os.getenv("HOME") + '/Library/Low-Fuel/'
        if not os.path.exists(self.tmp_dir):
            os.makedirs(self.tmp_dir)

        self.mapview = MapView(lat=random_latitude, lon=random_longitude, zoom=12, map_source="osm", size_hint=(1, 1), cache_dir=self.tmp_dir)
        self.add_widget(self.mapview) 
        
class Low_Fuel(App):
    def build(self):
        self. Title = 'Low-Fuel'
        if hasattr(sys, '_MEIPASS'):
            self.icon = '../Resources/petrol_pump.icns'
        else:
            self.icon = 'image/petrol_pump.icns'
        self. Root = RootWidget()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    Low_Fuel().run()

the code without crash

class RootWidget(FloatLayout):

    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        # make sure we aren't overriding any important functionality
        super(RootWidget, self).__init__(**kwargs)

        # random position
        Nord  = 51.08916667 
        Sud   = 42.33277778
        Est   =  8.23055556
        Ouest = -4.79555556
        random_latitude = random.uniform(Sud, Nord)
        random_longitude = random.uniform(Ouest, Est)
        
        # let's add a Widget to this layout
        self.tmp_dir = os.getenv("HOME") + '/Library/Low-Fuel/'
        if not os.path.exists(self.tmp_dir):
            os.makedirs(self.tmp_dir)

        #self.mapview = MapView(lat=random_latitude, lon=random_longitude, zoom=12, map_source="osm", size_hint=(1, 1), cache_dir=self.tmp_dir)
        #self.add_widget(self.mapview) 
        
class Low_Fuel(App):
    def build(self):
        self. Title = 'Low-Fuel'
        if hasattr(sys, '_MEIPASS'):
            self.icon = '../Resources/petrol_pump.icns'
        else:
            self.icon = 'image/petrol_pump.icns'
        self. Root = RootWidget()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    Low_Fuel().run()

Expected behavior

Can open the App and distribute my app
