Problem with urllib2

[stefano]

Hej,

I'm doing a weather plugin for FrontRow. I'm fine with the GUI so
far ...

Now I'm trying to do some internet requests, but all fails already
with the import of some additional
libs

# Standard stuff
import objc
import Foundation
import AppKit
from appscript import *
import time
import PyFR.Utilities

# additional lib
import urllib2

Error Log in Console:

This may mean that an unexpected error has occurred, or that you do
not have all of the dependencies for this bundle.

Just wanted to add ...

As it seems the libs are available in /usr/lib/python2.6.
I also tried to copy all libs into a subfolder (lib) of my project and
import with lib.urllib2 did not solve it.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Stefan

Best guess--- urllib2 is not pure python, but loads a compiled c
library. If that lib is not bundled, you'll get a failure.

Okay, got it ...

After cleaning up with

> rm -rf build dist

and compiling without -A

python setup.py py2app

it works.

muchas gracias,

Stefan
