I have been trying to replicate the example of this post, to generate an executable with pyinstaller but with no success. I am on a linux OS.
the exe I try to build is based on this code (test.py afterwards)
from pylab import *
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
figure(1, figsize=(6,6))
ax = axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
labels = 'Frogs', 'Hogs', 'Dogs', 'Logs'
fracs = [15, 30, 45, 10]
explode=(0, 0.05, 0, 0)
pie(fracs, explode=explode, labels=labels,
autopct='%1.1f%%', startangle=90)
title('Pie Chart Example', bbox={'facecolor':'0.8', 'pad':5})
show()
To create the executable I run
pyinstaller --onefile test.py
I tried with version 3.0 (official version in the pip install) and version 3.1.dev of pyinstaller. Both compile but when I run the executable I got
./test
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyInstaller/loader/pyimod03_importers.py", line 363, in load_module

exec(bytecode, module.__dict__)
File "/usr/share/pyshared/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 157, in <module>
from matplotlib.compat import subprocess
ImportError: No module named compat
test returned -1
I read that a possible error could be linked to my $PYTHONPATH (see this post) but even with a clean $PYTHONPATH environement, I have the same error.
Also I do not understand why the executable is looking for a file in the /usr/ directory when it should be standalone.
Any advices would be welcome. Thanks.
PS: This is the output of the compilation with pyinstaller v3.0. Note that to make it working I had to comment 'PyQt4' and 'PyQt5' in the file /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyInstaller/hooks/hook-PIL.py as suggested in this post.
