That didn't change the bundle size, so obviously that's not it. Maybe
it's not a huge deal, I'll come back to this one later. ;-) It's
obviously putting more in the bundle because when I make a compressed
disk image (as I did after bundlebuilder as well), the size is almost
twice as big (14MB as opposed to ~7MB before).

Here is my new base setup.py:
from distutils.core import setup
import py2app
import string
packageroot="."
name = "BitPim"
iconfile = "bitpim.icns"
v=getsubs()
data_files=[]
includes=[]
includePackages=[]
verstr = "%s-%s" % (v['NAME'], v['VERSION'])
for dir,files in resources():
for file in files:
fname = os.path.basename(file)
data_files.append( os.path.join(dir, fname))
coms=glob.glob("com_*.py")
for c in coms:
includes.append(c[:-3])
plist = dict(
CFBundleIconFile = iconfile,
CFBundleName = name,
CFBundleShortVersionString = verstr,
CFBundleGetInfoString = '-'.join([name, verstr]),
CFBundleExecutable = name,
CFBundleIdentifier = 'net.sourceforge.bitpim',
)
opts = dict(py2app=dict(
iconfile=iconfile,
plist=plist,
includes=includes
))
app = [ dict(
plist=plist,
script="bp.py",
),]
setup( data_files = [ ('resources', data_files) ], options = opts,
app = ap
p,)
If I turn on "optimize=2", I get this failure when building:

I couldn't get dest_base to work, I just do this:
os.system('mv ./BitPim.app ./dist');

That fixed that. ;-)

_libusb.so:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python
(compatibility version 2.3.0, current version 2.3.0)
time stamp 1092103224 Mon Aug 9 21:00:24 2004
/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0,
current version 71.1.1)
time stamp 1085619810 Wed May 26 20:03:30 2004
I guess when that was built it compiled in what it needed from libusb,
I had both a static and shared version of that available.

The library is at libusb.sourceforge.net, but obviously you don't have
to spend much time on it, as I was mistaken about it being needed.

I get this when using the trunk version:

2004-10-06 20:51:28.492 BitPim[1121] An unexpected error has occurred
during execution of the main script
ImportError:

Python/lib-dynload/wx/_core_.so' not found
Finally, back to a real basic question...
Is there a way in the script which contains the setup() call to
actually have it build the bundle without having to specifically
provide the py2app parameter on the command line? BitPim uses a
"makedist.py" file to build for all three platforms, and in the past
you would just issue "python makedist.py" to build it, it would be nice
if you didn't have to give the Mac additional parameters. I see Roger
is using py2exe to build the Windows version, but he has a sub-config
file and is spawning a subshell from makedist.py with a new python
interpreter to run it. That seems ugly. ;-)
Thanks!
