thanks for the infos. so you say PyQt-Py2.6-gpl-4.5-snapshot-20090504-1.exe was build with mingw? actually I was pretty impressed by the speed of VC9 - but compared to gcc I would say it was time! anyway, I am fine with mingw32, but tried to find out why my py2exe dist is not transferable to another PC. I switched to this binary snapshot of PyQt 4.5 but py2exe is now struggling to find MSVCP90.DLL... michael _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
