pyinstaller: The very first sentence on its website is "PyInstaller is a program that converts (packages) Python programs into stand-alone executables, under Windows, Linux and Irix." ditto(gadget="cx_Freeze", blurb="cx_Freeze is a set of utilities for freezing Python scripts into executables ...") and there are later mentions of Linux and various other .*[xX] platforms. It would be helpful for future inquirers if you were to say why these two packages seem to meet your need but after checking, you have found that they don't.
