Hi, this looks like bug with hook-sysconfig. See my gist for details: https://gist.github.com/m1keil/b4914568c8a0e88136b9
Using the latest version of hook-sysconfig (which you can find on github) seems to solve this issue: https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/blob/1e38dcb5916f3fc22089e169ff1ea61c05d66ad0/PyInstaller/hooks/hook-sysconfig.py On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 2:07:51 AM UTC+2, Bogdan Popa wrote: > > Hey, > > I'm trying to use PyInstaller to bundle a very simple app that contains > Flask.
