Hi Przemek,
What I mean by that is "hack the code of the dateutil module so that it
doesn't look for its data within the file system where the module exists".
That has been done for a number of modules and packages to make it "freezer
friendly" and you can do the same for this one. If that sounds scary then
your only option is to find another package that does what you want that
doesn't have this issue....or wait for me to address this issue in a
general way.
