So I edited the sourcecode of a program written for Python 2.1, and now I'm trying to compile it into a bundled EXE. I found and installed Python-2.1.3, then installed
py2exe-0.3.1.win32-py2.1.exe. I then follow the
Tutorial for py2exe to the letter (except where py2exe.py is now build_exe.py), but I always get the following error:
error in setup script: invalid distribution option 'console'
I realize I'm working with really old builds/versions, but does anyone have any ideas what's going wrong?
TIA,
Sam.
PS: Reposted from
old forums since I still haven't gotten an answer there..
EDIT: If anyone is interested, the source code can be downloaded
here (at least for now).
