desperately looking for a howto on running my wxPython app on Vista
python 2.6, py2exe and Vista do not make a happy set. Unfortunately I am in dire need to launch my app not only on WinXP but also on Vista. I need 2.6 because of a number of support packages I am using and some of which I am compiling myself (and python 2.5 needs a version of visual studio that is no longer available.) I can find all kinds of advice and discussions with google but I have yet to find a clear explanation on what a poor developer like me is supposed to do to get my python 2.6.2 , stackless, wxpython and all my (self-built) pyds to work happily on Vista. I am currently stuck on the infamous R6034 error but I understand that after that there may be another issue with certain wxPython functions. Can someone please point me to a howto on crafting the right Setup.py and manifests etc. to make this work? Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
