[Pythonmac-SIG] py2app - ImportError using pycrypto

[Terry Simons]

I found a way to solve my issue.

I was poking around with pygame, which has the same shared object load problems.

I stumbled across this:  http://www.rkblog.rk.edu.pl/w/p/building-mac-os-x-applications-py2app/

And something in there fixed my problem... specifically this:

	You have to edit Contents/Resources/__boot__.py and add in function def _run(*scripts): (near end of file) and add after imports this line:

	sys.path = [os.path.join(os.environ['RESOURCEPATH'], 'lib', 'python2.5', 'lib-dynload')] + sys.path


I added that, but changed "python2.5" to "python2.7" and it fixed the issue.

I think clearly this isn't the right fix, but it does seem to get my shared objects loading.  Is there any way to get this to happen automatically?

Any idea what's actually going on here?  Why does this fix the issue, and what are possible solutions other than hand-editing the __boot__.py?

Thanks!
