[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app: ImportError

[Sean Robinson]

   I have not yet been able to make a working stand-alone app bundle 
using py2app and I hope someone can point out what I'm missing.  I am 
using py2app cloned from bitbucket (changeset 169:9d95dbc52431), but 
py2app 0.6.3 did not work, either.  This is being done on OSX 10.6.8 
with the Apple-provided python (v2.6.1).

   The app (quotidian) is a Tkinter python script that runs well from 
Terminal and partially from a py2app --alias app bundle.  But the 
primary problem is that sub-modules with the project are not importing 
(see the stderr log below) on launch.  The supposedly missing module is 
in site-packages.zip (as queue.pyc).  I have verified that 
site-packages.zip is in sys.path.

   Does anyone have something else I can check?


Log from 'python setup.py py2app':
