Qt is included in the build, your users don't need to install anything
extra. I'm using PyInstaller for a fairly substantial PyQt4 project,
and it works a charm for our Windows and OS X builds.

Our Windows build process is actually completely automated, and the
PyInstaller part is pretty much just "pyinstaller openlp.pyw" (with a
couple of extra options just to make things prettier). If you wanna
see our build script,

For our project, getting everything else organised was more work than
the actual PyInstaller part.

If you wanna see our complete build script, you can see it in our
repository:
