Hello,

on behalf of the PyInstaller development team I'm happy to announce
PyInstaller 3.3.1. This release fixes some bugs.

   http://www.pyinstaller.org


Thanks for all those who contributed questions, bug-reports or
pull-requests.


=3D=3D=3D What it is =3D=3D=3D

PyInstaller bundles a Python application and all its dependencies into a
single package. The user can run the packaged app without installing a
Python interpreter or any modules.

PyInstaller reads a Python script written by you. It analyzes your code t=
o
discover every other module and library your script needs in order to
execute.
Then it collects copies of all those files =E2=80=93 including the active=
 Python
interpreter! =E2=80=93 and puts them with your script in a single folder,=
 or
optionally in a single executable file.

PyInstaller is tested against Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. However, it
is not a cross-compiler: to make a Windows app you run PyInstaller in
Windows; to make a Linux app you run it in Linux, etc. PyInstaller has
been used successfully with AIX, Solaris, and FreeBSD, but is not tested
against them.

=3D=3D=3D Installation =3D=3D=3D

PyInstaller can be installed from PyPi using

   pip install pyinstaller
