Basically, the various application-building systems, such as py2app, py2exe and cx_freeze don't yet support the setuptools/egg format properly. They neglect to properly register the bundled-up eggs, so the setuptools-based plugin code (which handles the array formats) never gets registered or invoked. At the moment I have no solution for this. I'm planning to sit down at some point and try to figure out a patch for the various tools, but my available time for OpenGL hacking is minimal these days and I'm still focused on the core functionality, more than the packaging issues. I *believe* with certain approaches with py2exe it should be possible to exclude the library entirely and then just drop the .egg into the application's distribution directory, but I haven't tried that and haven't confirmed that my understanding is correct. I'm guessing you would need to be sure that setuptools is included in the bundle as well, btw. Good luck, Mike -- ________________________________________________ Mike C.
