Hi

Thanks for the suggestion. My requirements certainly do overlap with
what you are suggesting. For that purpose, I am compiling the complete
tool chain.

I was finally able to get my installer working by commenting out a
line
in pyinstaller-1.5-rc1/support/rthooks/pyi_rth_qt4plugins.py .

    QCoreApplication.addLibraryPath(os.path.abspath(d))

This line is causing the application to fail. If I try to call the
exact same
command in python command prompt, python crashes with SEGV.

Now even though my application is working without this line, I want to
understand
the repercussions. Or whether there is a better fix than simply
commenting out this
line.

thanks
Sushant
