What OS are you running, and which python executable do you use  
("which python" in a terminal window)? If you're using /usr/bin/python  
on OSX 10.5 the interpreter should use these directories automaticly.   
A Python.org installation won't.

--use-pythonpath lets the generated application bundle use the value  
of PYTHONPATH. If you need that your application bundle is not self- 
contained, which is the whole point of py2app.

Could you try again using the current development version of py2app  
("easy_install py2app==dev" should do the trick)? Py2app 0.3.6 doesn't  
have explicit support for PyQt, which is needed because the generic  
dependency scanner cannot detect all dependencies of PyQt applications  
(because PyQt does some imports in C code, and the dependency scanner  
cannot "see" those).
