Hi Folks,
We need to distribute a wxPython (GUI) application
that must run on multiple versions of Linux.
We are also limited to using Python 2.5.4 and
wxPython 2.8.9.
Most of the target users of this application do not
want to install all of the different python
Modules (such as pyGDB and pySvn) that are required
for the application, and do they want to run
the application from source (they want to start up
an application, like they start up eclipse,)
what is the best method to provide a single distribution?
For C, I would just statically link my code, so that
it could run on all of the platforms that we
are required to support, but I keep hearing that
wxPython/wxWidget cannot be statically linked
with Python and/or other python code.
We were planning on using cxFreeze 4.01 to generate
the statically linked code (for plain python
command-line applications, this is suppose to work
just fine.)
You can either reply to this list, or send me a private
e-mail if you have a suggestion.
The user base is currently Linux, but we hope to
expand to other *NIX like operating systems in
the future.
Thanks,
