[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app + pygame: how to exclude pygame icon?

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the suggestion!

I actually tried it earlier, by opening site-packages.zip, replacing  
the icon with one of the same name (but my own design) and recreating  
the .zip -- unfortunately, it broke the app (refused to run, with an  
odd error).

I also looked for a way I could replace the original pygame_icon.icns,  
which I tracked down to somewhere inside the python.framework file --  
I tried to delete or replace it, but kept getting an error that I did  
not have permission (even though I'm the admin login, and even went to  
program info and changed the permissions there to let everyone write  
the file!)

So: I'm still stuck -- any other ideas would be MOST welcome!

Thanks for trying,
Joel
