I keep hearing this reply every time I ask this question, and it doesn't seem to make sense to me. Anything other than a trivial script will have dependencies. These might be other Python packages, C-extensions, and other libraries. What if your program runs on a version of Python other than the one installed on the client's Linux system? In my opinion, there is a severe need for this question to be answered in a robust and simple way. Is creating an rpm / deb file the answer? I don't know, but I think it's a very valid question. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
