python cx_Freeze egg problem

Question

im trying to build an executable (for 32bit windows xp) from a python script (which uses lots of eggs)

i considered py2exe(0.6.9), PyInstaller (1.4) and cx_Freeze (4.1.2)

py2exe doesnt like eggs for breakfast

PyInstaller doesnt like python 2.6 for lunch)

so i went with cx_Freeze (supposed to support eggs seamlessly since 4.0). but for some reason it doesnt.

what parameters do i pass in order for files inside an egg to be recognized?

Answer 1

You could try PyInstaller's 2.6 branch that is linked in the page you gave.
