I don't know, haven't used PyQt for quite some time and never really the snapshots. I was talking about Qt, not PyQt binaries. As PyQt4 binary packages also contain Qt itself, it could be that Phil builds them with MSVC. > 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... That indicates that indeed the snapshot was built with MSVC9.
