Hi,

I am trying to create a very basic example (just printing some test) of a pyinstaller app bundled as onefile under arch linux. On the machine where I created the app, it runs, but on a vanilla arch installation running in a VM I got:

Failed to extract libbz2.so.1.0: decompression resulted in return code -1!

So I assume the target machine needs to fulfill some requirements?

Best regards
Oliver

Hi again,

now it is working. Not 100% sure what has changed, but I did a system update and installed network manager (so before the VM was offline).

Best regards
Oliver
