There are problems in building psutil on OSX 10.7. It appears to copy the dynlibs to the appropriate directory, but it then fails to import it.

This is the script I am trying to build:

$ cat helloworld.py

import psutil
print psutil.cpu_times()

This is my setup.py:

$ cat setup.py

from distutils.core import setup
import py2app

setup(
      app=["helloworld.py"],
     )

$ python setup.py py2app

$ ./dist/helloworld.app/Contents/MacOS/helloworld

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/y/Documents/code/building/osx/dist/helloworld.app/Contents/Resources/__boot__.py", line 50, in <module>
    _run('helloworld.py')
  File "/Users/y/Documents/code/building/osx/dist/helloworld.app/Contents/Resources/__boot__.py", line 47, in _run
    execfile(path, globals(), globals())
  File "/Users/y/Documents/code/building/osx/dist/helloworld.app/Contents/Resources/helloworld.py", line 9, in <module>
    import psutil
  File "psutil/__init__.pyc", line 77, in <module>
  File "psutil/_psosx.pyc", line 14, in <module>
ImportError: No module named _psutil_osx

If I look inside of the lib-dynload directory I see it there though:

$ ls dist/helloworld.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/
_psutil_osx.so   _psutil_posix.so

That's annoying. I've downloaded psutils and will try to reproduce the issue (and fix it) later this week.

Could you test with the current repository version?

It works fine with psutil 0.6.1 on my machine (OSX 10.8, custom python 2.7 framework)
