Hello there
I am developing an application using wxPython and some other libraries
(including, now pysqlite 0.5.1).
I am distributing this app using py2exe and innosetup
I'm trying to reduce the size of my distribution (the setup.exe file as
well as the final install size)
I am using upx to reduce the size of my executables (not a clue how it
works, but it does reduce the size significantly)
Now I am trying to use 7 zip to reduce the size of my library.zip file,
but this seems to break the application.
I am trying to do this: (from
http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/moin.cgi/BetterCompression)
7z.exe -aoa x library.zip -olibrary\
del library.zip
cd library\
7z.exe a -tzip -mx9 ..\library.zip -r
cd..
rd library /s /q
upx.exe --best *.*
which works fine when I skip the 7z bit, but that breaks it?
Any advice ?
thanks
jaco
