I'm working on Macs running OS 10.11 and trying to build an app based on Python 3.5, Qt 5.1, and PyQt 5.1, everything installed using Homebrew package manager. I can build one-folder and bundled apps that run just fine on the computer where I have Pyinstaller, but when I move them to another Mac the application crashes on start up. I tried building a version with the -d option and when I ran it on the other computer, I got this output:

run the Pyinstaller build. There's a similar thing reported on StackOverflow (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25251615/pyinstaller-illegal-instruction-4-other-computers), but no answer there, other than trying another bundler. Kind of at my wit's end, so any help would be appreciated. David -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
