| Aug 3, 2017 at 15:19 | comment | added | Newtopian | @Rober Harvey : If strictly speaking about using PyInstaller, you are correct but he did specify that he was using multiple open source libraries (I assumed here GPL'd libraries) as well which would make his software GPL regardless of how it has been packaged. | |
| Aug 3, 2017 at 15:12 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | Unless I'm missing something here, this answer is fundamentally incorrect. The OP's question is essentially about code generation; you can use GPL'd software for code generation all you like without triggering the copyleft provision. Were this not the case, using compilers like GCC would require GPL'd licensing of the resulting code. | |
