Digging into the problem more, I've figured out that PyInstaller has hooks <https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/tree/develop/PyInstaller/hooks> for a bunch of popular libraries to make them work.

I've seen this sort of thing in other app bundlers too, e.g.
last time I looked py2app and py2exe had a bunch of special casing
for various libraries.

This is quite a big problem, IMO. It makes these tools very
flakey.

What is it about app bundling in Python that makes these things
necessary? Something seems very wrong somewhere.
