So I edited the sourcecode of a program written for Python 2.1, and now I'm trying to compile it into a bundled EXE.  I found and installed Python-2.1.3, then installed py2exe-0.3.1.win32-py2.1.exe.  I then follow the Tutorial for py2exe to the letter (except where py2exe.py is now build_exe.py), but I always get the following error:

 

error in setup script: invalid distribution option 'console'

 

I realize I'm working with really old builds/versions, but does anyone have any ideas what's going wrong?

 

TIA,

Sam.
