 The heavy amount of custom shell script just to get dependencies scares me
 and is a maintenance liability. py2exe at least automatically includes
 transitive deps in the build. I had a look at
 [http://docs.python.org/2/library/modulefinder.html âmodulefinder] but it
 is behaving in a weird way - for example, running my attached script on
 flashproxy-client for some reason gives setuptools as a dependency. There
 are also many false negatives due to conditional-imports, a feature unique
 to python.

 Also, do we have some usage statics for the GNU/Linux bundles? I should
 think most people use their distro's package manager for this... For Mac
 OS X we have to do a custom package in any case. :(
