Matplotlib in py2exe — ImportError: cannot import name dist (File “distutils\__init__.pyc”)

问题

Matplotlib working in this app perfectly.. but not working in build for some reason. Why?

I'll gladly take any advice that can help me.

.exe.log:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 3, in <module>
  File "zipextimporter.pyc", line 82, in load_module
  File "matplotlib\__init__.pyc", line 103, in <module>
  File "zipextimporter.pyc", line 82, in load_module
  File "distutils\__init__.pyc", line 25, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name dist

main.py is a script that I'm building. line #3 of it:

import matplotlib

Okay, I did not find proper solution for this problem.

I solved it with dirty hack, by simply replacing distutils dir in venv by distutils dir of system python. Now it all working and it working in venv! Don't quite sure about drawbacks of that though.

The issue as I can understand it, is that distutils of venv is really weird thing. Seems like venvwrapper or/and python packages changed it for some reasons, I don't know.

If you know something about this situation, please go ahead and add it to the thread as answers or comments. :)
