Re: [PyInstaller] Re: Trouble getting pyinstaller to import Queue in an imported module.

[Coyot Linden (Glenn Glazer)]

I may have an additional clue. If I do evil things and monkey with the sys.path like this:  if os.name == 'nt':    packages = os.path.join(os.path.splitdrive(sys.path[0])[0],'\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages')    sys.path.insert(0, packages) Then it works in the downloader.  The problem is that the point of using Queue is send messages from the downloader (progress) to the Tkinter class (InstallerUserMessage), so both classes need to have an import of Queue.  Adding the code above to both doesn't work when the downloader imports InstallerUserMessage in order to instantiate a class to send messages to. The sys.path, as seen by IUM is: ['C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages', 'C:\\Python27\\lib\\site-packages', 'C:\\Users\\coyot\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\_MEI12~1'] It replicates the site-packages dir because it inherits sys.path from the downloader which did this once for its own sake. And the traceback is: Traceback (most recent call last):  File "download_update.py", line 38, in <module>  File "c:\cygwin64\tmp\pip-build-xzzmth\pyinstaller\PyInstaller\loader\pyimod03_importers.py", line 389, in load_module  File "InstallerUserMessage.py", line 39, in <module>    #for hyperlinks ImportError: No module named Queue Failed to execute script download_update Note that the complaint is from the imported IUM class trying to import Queue, not from downloader itself.
