Hey Tim,

I don't have an answer, sorry, just two suggestions:

1. Maybe PyInstaller could be useful: http://www.pyinstaller.org/
2. Also ask on the Pygame mailing list: http://pygame.org/wiki/info

Good luck!

Idiot-proof installs for python+pygame+pyopenal+app

2012-01-01 Thread Tim Chase 
I'm looking at developing some tools that involve pygame+pyopenal 
and would like to make cross-platform distribution as painless as 
possible.  Is there a best practice for doing this without 
forcing the user to install Python, install (say) pip, pull down 
pygame  pyopenal and install those, install my (simple) app, and 
then finally run it?


On Debian, installation of all the prerequisites would just be

  apt-get install pygame python-openal

(which, via a local apt repository, I could flag as dependencies 
of my app and package it as .deb) but it gets hairier on Mac  Win32.
