I'd like to add, that blog can be dismissed outright. It's also out of date in regards to PyInstaller. It does support Python3 now. 2.7;3.3-3.5. I've used PyInstaller for years and prefer it over the other packaging solutions, it's really good.

I wouldn't be digging up old blogs as a source for dirt and relying on any information within without verifying it was or still is true.
