bundling using py2app

Source

Warning

This post is certainly obsolete...

using macports

  • install py2app :

    sudo port install -u  py26-py2app

  • there's sometimes a problem in py2app to check the right architecture to build on:

    find /opt/local -name apptemplate/setup.py
sudo vim /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/lib/python2.6/site-packages/py2app/apptemplate/setup.py

  • in this case, this can be done by adding the following lines to py2app/apptemplate/setup.py:

    gPreBuildVariants = [
    ...
    {
        'name': 'main-x86_64',
        'target': '10.6',
        'cflags': '-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk -arch x86_64',
        'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
    },
    {
        'name': 'main-i386',
        'target': '10.6',
        'cflags': '-isysroot / -arch i386',
        'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
    },
    ...
]

    . So, change to

    gPreBuildVariants = [
    {
        'name': 'main-x86_64',
        'target': '10.5',
        'cflags': '-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -arch x86_64',
        'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
     },
#     {
#         'name': 'main-universal',
#         'target': '10.5',
#         'cflags': '-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc -arch ppc64 -arch x86_64',
#         'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
#     },
#     {
#         'name': 'main-fat3',
#         'target': '10.5',
#         'cflags': '-isysroot / -arch i386 -arch ppc -arch x86_64',
#         'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
#     },
#     {
#         'name': 'main-intel',
#         'target': '10.5',
#         'cflags': '-isysroot / -arch i386 -arch x86_64',
#         'cc': 'gcc-4.2',
#     },
#     {
#         'name': 'main-fat',
#         'target': '10.3',
#         'cflags': '-isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk -arch i386 -arch ppc',
#         'cc': 'gcc-4.0',
#     },
]
