What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a simple script (e.g. example given at the top of page
http://code.google.com/p/guidata/)
2. Freeze using cx_Freeze
I used the following setup file
import sys
import os
"""Create a stand-alone executable"""
try:
import guidata
from guidata.disthelpers import Distribution
except ImportError:
raise ImportError, "This script requires guidata 1.4+"
def create_executable():
"""Build executable using ``guidata.disthelpers``"""
dist = Distribution()
dist.setup(name='Foo', version='0.1',
description='bar',
script="test.py", target_name='test.exe')
dist.add_modules('guidata', 'guiqwt')
# Building executable
dist.build('cx_Freeze')
if __name__ == '__main__':
create_executable()
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The executable gets built, but when attempted to run. It gives the error
OSError: [Errno 20] Not a directory: '/home/user/tmp/dist/library.zip/guidata/images'
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
guidata 1.5.1 Linux
In windows this works fine!
Please provide any additional information below.
I traced the problem to the lines
parentdir = osp.join(datapath, osp.pardir)
if osp.isfile(parentdir)
in configtools.py file.
See the following link where I posted a temporary hack to avoid the issue for
the moment.
