Um - you're not answering the question I asked. I asked "What app do I
use to bundle my applications for Unix, ala py2exe (or whatever it is)
for Windows?" You're telling me how to install wxPython on those
platforms.

I know how to install wxPython. What I want to know is how to build an
application bundle for all those Unix systems for a Python app I use
that includes wxPython - or any other third party libraries I may be
using.
