Re: Compile relax as single files for Windows, Mac and LinuxRe: Compile relax as single files for Windows, Mac and LinuxHi EdwardThat really is suspicious! I have to test it on my Windows (7) to see whether I get the same... Do you also have the same spy process on Linux?

Hi, Here is some more info about the sneaky internet connection within the binary. The IP address is 78.40.125.80. Below is the output of whois, identifying that this is connecting to someone's computer in France. Either Bearstech (http://bearstech.com/) or Iguane Solutions (http://www.iguanesolutions.com/).

Anything to make it easier for the user would be better. I've installed this on my Win2k VM image and tested it - on Mandriva 2010.0, I could not compile the bootloader image so could not test it. This is not a simple process and there are a few problems: 1) The first is automation of the process for packages. Pyinstaller seems to need to run python within the pyinstaller installation directory. The *.spec file would be better to be in the relax file system and this should be scripted to be all self contained within relax. We need all of this info in the relax file structure so that someone can take over the process in the future. 2) I've now included the relax logo graphics in the 'graphics' directory, but on Windows I cannot use the ulysses.ico file for the program icon. 3) Another problem I have is that when launching the compiled relax program on Windows built in this way, the program tries to access the Internet. I have no idea what this is doing, but relax should not be doing this. This is very, very suspicious behaviour :S 4) Running the test suite is a catastrophe. There are 146 errors in 155 system tests, and the unit tests will not even run. 5) The traceback messages do not have the normal relax file structure, so we may not be able to help users with errors on these versions. The concept that the user downloads a single file without any dependencies is a great idea for Windows users, or even all users who would like to run it without administrator privileges. But all these problems will have to be sorted out before this would be of any use.

There is a tool called PyInstaller (http://www.pyinstaller.org/) that does that pretty well. The advantage is that users only have to download a single file, which is bigger, but includes all the Packages (Python modules, NumPy, SciPy, wxPython....). It works fine on Linux and Mac. On Windows, there is a limit to Python 2.5, as Python 2.6 requires .dll files of Windows, which are protected. I tested PyInstaller on another program using the same modules and it worked fine (Linux and Windows, not tested on Mac).
