Hi, My current project seems very similar to yours and I've been using py2exe without problems (well, almost, QWebView wasn't working because OpenSSL's libraries were missing on the target "clean" computer, but after I tracked it down it was easy to fix).
Regarding py2app, I've been having some troubles mainly because, from what I've read, you can't use Apple's system python because otherwise the generated app will always rely on the system's packages, and my unsuccessful tests seem to support that. Ryan, do you have any tips regarding this problem? I installed Python 2.7 from MacPorts and created a virtualenv to build PySide (successfully). After this, all hell breaks loose because of the different Python versions and some MacPorts weirdness. It would be great if you could share how you managed this whole situation. :) Cheers, João On Mon, Jan 10, 2011 at 9:50 PM, Ryan Kelly <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, 2011-01-11 at 08:42 +1100, Ryan Kelly wrote: >> On Mon, 2011-01-10 at 13:10 +0000, Purma Jukka wrote: >> > Hi, >> > >> > I'm planning to move my Python+Qt project from PyQt4 to PySide before >> > making it public and adding license texts.
