I made a Tools Plugin that creates xy plots and dataset names with utf-8

Have you tried the official binary?
http://download.gna.org/veusz/Binaries-Windows/veusz-1.17.1-windows-setup.exe
I assume that you're using something like the following at the top of
your file?
# coding: utf-8
I would like to distribute the Tool Plugin and Veusz to others who don't
have python installed. So I thought I could rebuild the installer using
pyinstaller-2.0 (If that was used to generate the windows installer).
I found a few pyinstaller '.spec' files on github
(https://github.com/jeremysanders/veusz) but they don't seem to work.
Can someone please build the installer for Veusz 1.17.1 with utf-8
encoding, or suggest how to get pyinstaller to work with the veusz source?
Is there another way to create the windows installer from source with
encoding set to UTF-8?
This should work, as Veusz does have some Unicode source code already
(e.g. widgets/polar.py) and is distributed with pyinstaller.
I remember it was a bit difficult to get pyinstaller to work properly. I
had to remove the python3 parts of PyQt to get it to package correctly.
You also need a working compiler in Windows.
If you send me the error logs it might help fix the problem. I could
send you my pyinstaller directory. I don't remember what version I'm
using without investigating. I believe the .spec file is up to date in
the github repository.
