As an end-user of a number of largish Python applications on Linux, I
don't think any of them use anything like pyinstaller (and I would not
be very happy if they did -- I've likely got almost all of the
required libraries already installed, and I don't need another copy of
all that stuff on my machine that then has to be backed up).
The normal way to distribute even large Python apps with a lot of
required libraries is either as just the Python sources with a
'setup.py' file or as a package that tells the system what
dependancies and libraries are required. If you don't want to ship
bare sources, the "right" way to distribute a Python app for Linux is
as an .rpm, .ebuild, or .deb.
