Ron,
Search this list and you'll a number of good discussions of py2app, but
a few hints:
1) use the latest version:
easy_install py2app==dev
(at least I think that's the syntax)
generates an App Bundle, but in the Contents/Resources directory
only the main .py file is created, not all other .py files
from the application.
There should be a "lib" dir in Resources that has most of the python
code in it -- look in theree. Also, most of the python modules get put
in a single zip archive, which you can unzip to see what's there.
If I copy those in manually I get:
If you put them directly in Resources, I'm not sure they'll be found,
anyway.
ImportError: No module named pkg_resources.
That's a setuptools module -- eggs and setuptools are not supported well
by py2app, though I can usually get it to work. Make sure none of your
eggs are zipped -- that can be a problem.
Now I'm at a loss how to continue. What should I do next?
Back up a step, and use py2app to build a simple app first. If that
works, try adding stuff in bit my bit. If that's too hard to do, then
you can built your entire app, run it, and then each time you get an
error, you can add the missing package manually to the setup.py script.
It's a bit slow going, but you'l get there.
You can also look in the app bundle, and unzip the site-packages.zip to
see what is there, and what's missing.
adding a "print sys.path" can be helpful too -- stdout goes to the
Console app, so you can see it.
HTH,
-Chris
