I have just one user of my one-folder bundled app who could not get it to run in OS X "Mavericks". Worked fine for other people, but she reported the dreaded "Could not import QtCore". User tried several things, could not get it to work.
User discovered that when she defined a new Mac user-id and downloaded my bundle there, it ran. Big red herring! It was not the new-user environment. Here is what she reported today: Do you want to know what was the ultimate cause of my troubles? I found > out. A slash. I was so clever as to put a slash in the name of the folder > containing, among zillions of other scripts, the PPQT bundle. "PP/PPV > tools" I called it. (Well, I did not know. I knew about colons and periods > in filenames. Now I know about slashes too.) So the installer [she means, > bootloader] could not find the files needed. Replaced the damned thing with > a (hopefully) harmless hyphen and voilà! > Mac OS is very liberal about what characters you can use to name files and folders. So beware the over-clever user on Mac OS! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
