Hi all, I'd like to build a pretty much self-contained package to deploy my PyQt-based system. The reason being is that we need to have our system tested by as many people as possible to ensure it is working correctly. To do that, I've done some research into possible alternatives, and came across Phil's helpful document on deployment about a year ago. I've noticed that the solution Phil covers is Gorden McMillan's Installer package, which has been discontinued as far as I can tell.
However, there are some interesting concepts in the document that could still be utilized. Specifically, I'd like to see if it is possible to create an archive that includes the code for my project, a full Python binary package with PyQt and SIP built into the interpreter, and a static Qt library. I'm just now beginning to investigate this approach, and am willing to document and share my findings with the community. I'd like to try this approach instead of the "single binary" solution such as freeze and py2exe, as once the package is installed, I'd like to experiment with providing module updates over the network and dynamically loading new code. If this is an insane idea please let me know, and perhaps suggest some different approaches. I'd *really* like to continue using PyQt/Python for this project instead of moving to Qt/C++, so any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
