[python-win32] Re: py2exe 0.5 and WMI?

[Stefan Holmgren]

Hi, Thomas...

I made this thing to work, but I don't think it's a nice way to solve it...

.. At first I did a setup.py py2exe as below on my XP.
.. Then I opened the shared.zip and extracted all
'win32com\gen_py\565783C6-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6x0x1x2' files
.. and renamed them to
'win32com\gen_py\565783C6-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6x0x1x1'
.. appended the new structur into the zip-file..
.. In shared.zip I now got same files doubled
'win32com\gen_py\565783C6-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6x0x1x2' and
'win32com\gen_py\565783C6-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6x0x1x1'

Hope u understand what I have done!
This is working for me....
