[Matplotlib-users] Re: py2exe Problems...

Hi Andrea and others,

I think the timezone stuff you can solve by putting "pytz" into the 
packages to include.

Isn't the optimize : 2 getting rid of the doc stuff?

# options for py2exe
options = {"py2exe": {"compressed": 1,
                       "optimize": 2,
                       "packages": ["encodings", "kinterbasdb", "pytz"],
                       "includes": ["ntpath"]}
           }

I get an error about ntpath, that is why I put it to includes, but it 
doesn't solve the problem - posted it on the py2exe newsgroup.

See you
Werner
