The Gitso build scripts use Python 2.5. Ideally the build script could figure 
it out on it's own or it'd prompt you. I would think you could update the build 
scripts 'makegitso.bat' to look for python26 (or whatever the correct path is).

Please let me know how it goes.

Paths and Environmental variables are fixed, no build issue. But when running 
the exe it is giving mentioned error must be something with py2exe !!

I might also be a difference in the version of python. I know it runs on a Mac 
on Python 2.6.1. But possibly files have moved places so when it creates the 
installer the files are copied over incorrectly or maybe there's an 
incompatibility between the versions. Either way, we should upgrade gitso to 
Python 2.6 (for all platforms) at some point.

That will be great, thanks waiting for the update.
BTW if it gave errors like object not found, no variable named xxxxx then we 
can say it is because of python version but it is saying "file not found", 
something with paths or py2exe !?
