QtCore/QtGui app zipped should be about 12MB intel-only (22MB if you use
Universal Qt - thus making universal py2app application)

<br>
I am using PyQt4.5 and py2app 0.3.6 on MacOS 10.5<br>
<br>
&gt; from setuptools import setup<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; APP = [&#39;MyApp.py&#39;]<br>
&gt; DATA_FILES = []<br>
&gt; OPTIONS = {&#39;argv_emulation&#39;: True,<br>
&gt;            &#39;includes&#39;: [],<br>
&gt;            }<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; setup(<br>
&gt;     app=APP,<br>
&gt;     data_files=DATA_FILES,<br>
&gt;     options={&#39;py2app&#39;: OPTIONS},<br>
&gt;     setup_requires=[&#39;py2app&#39;],<br>
&gt; )<br>
<br>
running this setup.py PyQt4, sip and the Qt framework are detected and<br>
the app runs fine,<br>
<br>
*BUT* the app is 200MB (TWOHUNDRET MEGABYTES) big and its doing nothing<br>
but opening an empty QFrame.<br>
I looked into the app-contents and found a lot of debug stuff for the<br>
QtGui/QtCore Frameworks.<br>
<br>
after deleting these files the app was still running fine and only 42MB<br>
big (I found a lot of Pyhton libs/packages in there which are not used<br>
at all)<br>
<br>
42MB for an &quot;empty program&quot; is ok, since all my scripts will not add<br>
much size, but 200MB is just *too big*.<br>
it looks like py2app is including a lot of unnecessary stuff...<br>
could stackless Python 2.6.2 is the problem?<br>
<br>
thanks a lot for your help!<br>
