I got some problems, I wonder if any one has similar experiences or any ideas for these? ArialMy Mac OS X is 10.2.8. I built py2app from source, since the py2app-0.1.5 installation package needs 10.3 installer. My software uses PyQt, PyOpenGL packages. Same as py2exe, py2app can't find the "sip" module, which is used by PyQt,� so I add the option: "--includes sip", this works fine, but the problem is when I run the application, I got an error: The next version of py2app will include workarounds for PyQt and PyOpenGL, assuming that an easy-ish to install version of PyQt is available by the time I do it. I'll probably release a new version of py2app in two or three weeks. Until then, PyQt is completely untested and I can't really help you with anything PyQt specific.ArialIOError: [Errno20] Not a directory: '�./Contents/Resources/Python/site-packages.zip/OpenGL/version'.� ArialI tried to add the file 'version' from OpenGL directory to site-packages.zip and extract the zip file into a directory called site-packages.zip, the above error disappeared, but I got an new error: Don't do that.Arial QPaintDevice: Must construct a Qapplication before a QPaintDevice.� My application works fine and doesn't have such errors if I just start it from a shell window like: pythonw �./myapp.py. This sounds like an error in your script or something, I can't help you with that. Maybe using --packages for sip and PyQt (whatever the package names are called) will fix this? I haven't looked at PyQt in quite some time and have no idea what nasty hacks it uses.ArialI also tried� "--excludes OpenGL" module and then manually copy the OpenGL directory� from Python.frameworks to "site-pakcages.zip" and "lib-dynload" directories, the trick that I used for py2exe on Windows, but it seems this is notEither hack the OpenGL __init__ to use a sane method to acquire its version, or use --packages OpenGL to include the package as-is (out of the zip)Arial working here: " Fatal Python error: Interpreter not initialized (Version mismatch?) "This is because Python itself is included in your application, but the OpenGL extension links directly to your /LIbrary/Frameworks/Python.framework. It explodes because once you load that extension, you have *TWO* Python libraries in your process. When using py2app correctly (i.e. not hacking around the application bundles on your own!) it will automatically take care of this for you by rewriting the Mach-O load commands to point to your in-bundle Python. -bob
