Python distribution script

I'm having trouble distributing my Python programs. for Linux it's easy enough, just tell people what packages they need and provide a source. for windows, however, this is a completely different story. I can get my program compiled with py2exe. the problem there, however, is that it always skips one dll file or another.

So my question is, is there any simple way for a python script package for multiple platforms? right now I still have to go to the wild goose after DLL files that I don’t have. and it doesn’t even speak about 32-bit and 64-bit problems, which leaves much to be desired.

any and all pointers are welcome. the ideal solution would be some kind of script that will create two zip files. one of which is linux / source and one for windows64bit / windows32bit. I really don't care about Mac support, but it would be desirable.

If you support Linux, you probably support mac in the same way.

I usually use py2exe for distribution to windows, but there are alternatives like cxfreeze and others. I did not bother to care about 64/32 bits and just deliver a 32-bit solution.

Here is a list of packages:
