[wxpython-users] wxaddons and py2exe

[Chris Barker]

Hi Kevin (and everyone else),

I'm running into an odd issue with wx addons and py2exe.

I'm using

wxaddons.sized_controls

and I'm also using pubsub (the version downloaded from SF)

py2exe bundles up OK, but then I get a runtime error:

file "wxaddons\__init__.p[yo, line 180 in import_hook
ImportError: No module named pubsubconf

Now, I have no idea what pubsubconf has to do with wxaddons, but I 
suspect that it doesn't and this is simply a result of installing an 
import hook, and now all imports are running through that. Which makes 
me think:

why not change the order of the imports....

and BINGO! now I get the import error, but in the normal way -- off to 
fix that.

But anyway, It's been my experience that import hooks just cause trouble:

Can I turn that off in wxaddons?

Is it really needed anyway? The auto-download stuff is nifty, but maybe 
a better idea than reality.

-Chris
