[kivy dev 1.9.2] No module named 'kivy._clock'

I’ve just installed kivy 1.9.2 dev for python 3.5 from the daily ppa, and running a very simple app throws this error:

Because you mixed up binary modules which were built for Python 3.4 with Python 3.5. Our PPA isn’t meant to be used with custom installations. If you want to use deb packages always be sure you also use the Ubuntu repositories to install all your needs. If there is Python 3.5 missing for you, you should think about upgrading to Ubuntu Xenial.

Therefore…

Spyder is just and IDE and does work with kivy. You just have to make sure to install Kivy as specified in the current install page.
