Can't build executable on Python 3.10.0

[marvinscham]

Note: I already found the solution, I'm adding this issue as documentation for the PR I'll open now.

---

I ran the command from the project's README to create the executable

• pipenv install --dev
• pipenv run pyinstaller -F --icon=poro.ico ./main.py

but the command failed with an IndexError: tuple index out of range.

My system specifications:

• Windows 10
• Python 3.10.0
• PyInstaller 5.2

I found this to be a compatibility issue between Python 3.10.0 and PyInstaller that can be solved by upgrading to Python ~> 3.10.1
