No module named 'nodekind' when trying to package using Pyinstaller

[dostiep]

I'm getting the following error when I'm using Pyinstaller to create an executable file:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "xxxxxxx.pyw", line 7, in
File "PyInstaller\loader\pyimod02_importers.py", line 499, in exec_module
File "saxonpy_init_.py", line 45, in
File "python_saxon\saxonc.pyx", line 16, in init saxonc
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nodekind'

Not sure if it's a Pyinstaller or Saxonpy issue but I haven't been able to find a solution so far.

I am not experienced in using Pyinstaller but it seems to be missing the file nodekind.py which is included in saxonpy

I'm no Pyinstaller expert either but from what I read, it might be a "hook file" that is missing. Don't know if that might help solve the issue (https://pyinstaller.org/en/stable/hooks.html)

Hi, just looking back at this issue. I had the same problem on SaxonC 12 and managed to remove the dependency (See the bug issue: https://saxonica.plan.io/issues/5853). This will be applied in the next maintenance release of SaxonC 12 which will be available on python saxonche, saxoncpe and saxoncee.
