py2app RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded when using python setup.py py2app

[XavierPixel]

I also meet similar issue like “ RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded #316 ”

Seems sympy has deep recursive,

and i try python setup.py py2app -A, it works well, when i use python setup.py py2app error happens.
Any suggestions ?

I get the same. In my case I could workaround by setting sympy in the excludes and it seems not to be a problem - I guess some package that I use declares this dependency but isn't strictly needed - but would be nice to get it fixed

[ronaldoussoren]

Having a script that reproduces the problem would help.

I get the following messages from a script that imports sympy.polys.polyquinticconst, but the builds succeeds as expected (that is no traceback and an app bundle that can import the module).

RecursionError while compiling code, skip scanning bytecode 
Skip compiling '/Users/ronald/Projects/py2app/workenv10/lib/python3.10/site-packages/sympy/polys/polyquinticconst.py' due to recursion error

--- Skipping recipe PIL ---

These warnings are harmless, they change the way py2app scans these modules for dependencies and that disables some of the intelligence for handling missing modules. Neither module has dependencies outside of sympy itself, so that's not relevant for building apps using this package.

[phixofor]

Here's an old hack from cx_freeze that works for me.

Add this to your setup.py:

import sys
sys.setrecursionlimit(5000)

[DoubleStarK]

sys.setrecursionlimit(5000)

I thought it was infinite loop but this really help.....
