Hi all,

A couple of addenda:


(1) It appears that modules included via the py2app 'includes' option do not have their full dependencies added. I included a handful of modules from my main package via the setup.py script:

setup_kws['options'] = {'py2app':{'includes':['mypackage.util', 'mypackage.other']}}

These modules do get included, but *none* of their dependencies do, even though there are clear 'import' statements in each. I checked out the dependency graph as output by the --graph option, and sure enough, no dependencies other than 'os' (which is not imported by the modules) are shown. Is this by design? I tried tracing through the modulegraph code to check, but it doesn't seem that this is the desired outcome.

I tried *directly* importing these modules from the main script that I pass to the 'app' setup option, and still nothing! Sometimes there's not a single entry in the dependency graph for a module that is explicitly imported from the app script. This is confusing! What circumstances could cause modulegraph to fail so utterly?

(2) It appears that any packages that I include via the py2app 'packages' option are copied verbatim from the *source*, not *build* directory. E.g. my top-level package is called 'mypackage', and I want to force all of it to be included in the py2app bundle, so I do the following in the top-level setup.py file: setup_kws['options'] = {'py2app':{'includes':['mypackage.util', 'mypackage.other']}}

Sorry, copy-paste error. I meant:
   setup_kws['options'] = {'py2app':{'packages':['mypackage']}}

Now, there are a lot of C extensions to mypackage, and some (distutils-supported) folder-structure transformations (thanks to some 3rd party code that I've included). But at the end of the day, the right structure gets put into build/lib.macosx[whatever]. However, for some reason what gets copied over into the app bundle is the mypackage tree from the source dir, not from the build/lib dir. Which includes hundreds of C source files, etc., and has the wrong structure.

Anyone have any thoughts about these matters?

Thanks,

Zach Pincus
