Wouldn't figuring out how to use py2exe be, well, *easier* than figuring out what a minimal install would look like? Your question can't be answered in the abstract. Something is important if you use it. Without seeing your code (and without detailed knowledge of Python internals), there is no way to tell what that might be. You can of course omit things that you don't use - but because of various dependencies you might be using a file without knowing it. One of the purposes of a tool like py2exe is to automatically handle such dependencies. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
