I've gotten a little further along by hacking into "iu.py" to make a
DirOwner also check inside "lib/". But, there are three embedded
modules in every pyinstaller created archive: iu, struct, and
archive. Struct requires a shared object, it is not pure python (i'm
guessing). So, I have to have _struct.so sitting in the same dir as
the binary because _struct.so is required to open any CArchives. I
don't think there's a way around this right now, but my resulting
directory looks like this:
dist/
lib/
libpython2.5.so.1.0*
media/
PROG
_struct.so
(where PROG is the binary executable and lib/ contains 55 .so files
and media is program specific resources)
Not bad. I think that's good enough for now. BTW, adding the env
_MEIPASS2=./lib solves all my problems, even searching for _struct.so,
but I can't seem to compile that behavior into the C code.
