I don't know this for sure, but I would be surprised if any of the
widget
toolkits gave you much more trouble than any other when making your
app
into a bundled executable.

I have made wxPython apps into a Windows .exe file easily using
GUI2Exe,
which is an excellent GUI interface (written in wxPython by Andrea
Gavana)
to a number of the executable bundlers:  py2exe, PyInstaller, py2app,
cx_Freeze, bbFreeze.  Some of these are for Windows, some for Mac,
some
for Linux.

wxPython apparently works with OpenCV:

While you're Googling you might want to be aware of any legal
concerns with py2exe and distributing dll files (if there are
any).
