[Pythonmac-SIG] LXML with py2app

[Kenneth Miller]

Has anyone had success with this?

This is what I'm encountering.

Here i printed the sys.path, why does this include modules local to  
the machine? I want it to be independent of any local resources?

Here's the traceback of the error.

So it's looking for etree.so here:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/ 
lib-dynload/lxml/etree.so

But it exists here in the app:
./Contents/Resources/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/lxml

Note:
	I'm using __import__ in certain sections of my code, but it's choking  
before it gets to this.

Anyone have any ideas?
