[anandnarayan891]

I am trying to combine pys60 1.9.6 runtime with my app but mergesis says pys60 1.9.6 has embedded sis , if i should use makesis can u please tell me the baby steps?

hello anandnarayan891

you cant do that using mergesis try using makesis tool to make a sis out of the pkg file.

search for makesis, things will become clear.

[gaba88]

ya you can write the pkg file using note pad its not more than a text file.

I don't know where the discussion is heading but, PyS60 runtime comes embedded with dependencies. You would have to wait for 2.0 (hopefully not far at all) where a single Python runtime file (without embedded dependencies) might be available.

Otherwise the only solution would be using sisinfo script to extract the core runtime but you may have to embed the dependencies separately as well. .

what I am doing now , is making a pkg file and then using makesis , for that I want to know the UID of pys60_1.9.6
And I also want to know why the SVG icon is not getting attached

Hi anand,

Have you tried using siscontents?

It comes with a user-interface and you can easily embed/create/edit sis files. It does not allow you all the features ensymble gives you (or maybe, I've not figured it out as yet), but it is a good starting point.

Google for "siscontents" and you should find a zipped file comprising the executable.

hey I used siscontents and found the UID , I just realized that I cannot use makesis also on pys601.9.6 ... I am really stuck now
