The use of py2app on GNU/Linux is, that I want to distribute apps to

I develop on my Gentoo Box, and I want to be able to create programs
for
friends of mine who use MacOSX.
Python is cross platform, but to really use that advantage, I need
to be able
to distribute Python programs for individual platforms easily.
And I want to enable other Linux users to do the same.
It should in theory be possible to enhance py2app to support this. The
Carbon.File dependency is only needed for alias builds, and those are
only useful during development anyway.
I'd be surprised if this works out of the box though, first of all
distutils isn't very well suited to cross-compilation anyway and
py2app probably has hardcoded locations that won't exist on you're
Gentoo box.
And as a final observation: distributing builds without testing is
wishful thinking. It would be much more worthwhile to ask one of
you're friends if you can use their system to do the initial debugging
on MacOSX and afterwards ask them to build the MacOSX binaries for you.

I'm positively confused. What would be the use of py2app and

on a platform other than the Mac? Are you trying to build apps for
GNUstep or something?
If that is your intention, chances are a lot of the NeXT-ish stuff
available in GNUstep has diverged significantly from the same in OS
X,
and most packages that have those targets are not going to build
properly on Linux without rewriting half the package itself.

Hi,
I am trying to get py2app and bdst_mpkg to work in Gentoo GNU/Linux
at the moment, and I wondered, if you could provide some
information.
The problems I'm stumbling upon are:
* plistlib isn't avaible in my Python. It can be downloaded from
SVn,
though: ->
http://svn.python.org/view/*checkout*/python/trunk/Lib/plistlib.py?rev
=60173
* Carbon.File isn't avaible in my Python either.
I'd be very thankful for help in getting it to work (and I'll try
to
contribute the findings at least into Gentoo, so other Gentoo users
can use py2app and bdist_mpkg, too).
Best wishes,
Arne
