pre-bundled version for Linux is available on the downloads page but it was built in Ubuntu so may not work on other linux variants. Once you have installed python & wxpython you can build your own using pyinstaller.py. If you do this you need to include a number of files in the build otherwise running the executable will fail. Do the following;
use pyinstaller
If you have made any recent operating system changes, you may need to update pyinstaller. Do so as follows;
sudo pip install pyinstaller
sudo pip install --upgrade pyinstaller
open a terminal window, change to the source folder you wish to build and execute the following (it is suggested you copy your source folder to a temporary folder so that you dont add unwanted build files to your main source folder);
pyinstaller pfemame.py
You should now have a build and dist folder. The dist folder is the one you're looking for. Now from your source folder you need to copy into the dist folder the following additional files for pfemame;
catver.ini
changelog.doc
pfemame.ico
controls.txt
icons (folder)
images (folder)
Then you need to run your development version of pfemame and use select all in the game categories. Then copy this categories.dat file to your distribution folder.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
is there instruction on getting pfeMame to work on Arch linux? tried to compile but got "unknown module py2exe"
had to install python2 and wxpython .. then was able to launch using: python2 ./pfemame.py
