Sample pyinstaller spec missing #66

Closed zacker150 closed 5 years ago

In the contributing guidelines, it says

See the sample .spec file for packaging with pyinstaller.

However, there is no sample .spec file in the repo. Can you upload a sample .spec file used to package the releases?

I have added the sample.spec file. I have noted, however, that the spec file usually needs to be tuned to run on a specific machine. This is usually a trial and error process to make sure everything in the "pathex" list is correct.

Just in case you run into it, I have also noticed on some machines it does not pick up PyQt5.sip. If this happens to be the case, just add "PyQt5.sip" to the hiddenimports list in the spec file.
