I find Python to be one of the least worst languages. It took some difficult weeks to figure out how to build and package, although, to that end, PyQtDeploy came along at just the right time. It's already in the Mac App Store.

I had the exact same experience with my PyQt-based file manager [1]. Because of this frustration, I open sourced its build system [2]. I believe it could have saved you those weeks of work. Maybe it can still help you if you want to add automatic updates on Mac, or support other OSs (Windows, Linux).

Wow! I did not realise you had made a build system as a standalone project. This is excellent.
