Yes, because the last time I used PyInstaller on Windows, it worked out of the box.

Just follow the instructions: Configure, MakeSpec, Build. >From the documentation: """ Building the bootloaders Note: Windows users can skip this step, because PyInstaller already ships with binary bootloaders. """ And once again, you need to run this on a real Windows box. WINE *might* work, but PyInstaller tracks various Windows dependencies that might not be in WINE. You cannot build Windows packages on Linux. -- Raoul Snyman, B.Tech IT (Software Engineering) Saturn Laboratories m: 082 550 3754 e: [email protected] w: www.saturnlaboratories.co.za b: blog.saturnlaboratories.co.za _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
