Py2app throwing import error image not found with pyside - py2app

Question

I'm trying to build an app using PySide with py2app but I'm having problems actually running the app.
I've tried a number of variations on the setup.py file for importing PySide but nothing works. I've placed in setup_requires, install_requires, OPTIONS, a direct import at the top of the setup.py file to this point.
Here is what my current setup.py file looks like:
from setuptools import setup
import PySide
APP = ['login.py']
DATA_FILES = []
OPTIONS = {'argv_emulation': True, 'includes': 'PySide'}
setup(
app=APP,
data_files=DATA_FILES,
options={'py2app': OPTIONS},
setup_requires=['py2app'],
)
Here is what it looks like when I build the setup.py file
$ python setup.py py2app -A
running py2app

But when I try to run my app it hangs and crashes with the following traceback

I checked the path and the mentioned files all exist so I'm out of ideas.

Answer 1

Well, if anyone encounters the issue it is because you have to brew install pyside. pip install pyside will cause this issue but I have no idea why.
