Dabo is an open source package written by two guys in their spare
time. I'm not surprised that there might still be some loose ends,
especially with integrating with external packages.

Did you post a message to their list explaining the problem? Just last
week someone found a problem building with py2exe, and Paul, one of
the authors, identified the problem (py2exe wasn't 'finding' a library
that it should have), and had a fix posted within a couple of hours.

Good to hear! And don't struggle too much without posting a message
about your problem on the Dabo lists, or on their issue tracker
(http://dabodev.com/tracker). I've never worked with a more helpful
team than with the Dabo folks.
