Bob has pointed out that the python libs shouldn't be in the runtime directory, they should be included through py2app's module management.
Zope has ... interesting ideas about how modules and packages work though, so that's going to be fun to sort out :)
I noticed that if I specify a packages option to py2app, it creates both a site-packages.zip *and* a site-packages directory. It then fails to find some stuff. Adding the packages as "includes" doesn't help, as the packages are then included in the zip file, and unfortunately, Zope stores data files in the packages alongside the Python source files, and assumes those files are in a regular directory structure. So now I work on figuring how to turn off the zip-ification of site-packages.
Creating both a zip and a directory is perfectly normal and expected.
"fails to find some stuff" is probably unrelated.
Turning off zip-ification of site-packages wouldn't do you any good because py2app chooses which files it wants to put in there.
Look at <http://svn.red-bean.com/bob/py2app/trunk/examples/pkg_data/> -- it's designed to be particularly annoying to package.
