Changelog for PyInstaller 3.0 – 3.2.1 ====================================================== 3.2.1 (2017-01-15) ------------------ - New, updated and fixed hooks: botocore (#2094), gi (#2347), jira (#2222), PyQt5.QtWebEngineWidgets (#2269), skimage (#2195, 2225), sphinx (#2323,) xsge_gui (#2251). Fixed the following issues: - Don't fail if working directory already exists (#1994) - Avoid encoding errors in main script (#1976) - Fix hasher digest bytes not str (#2229, #2230) - (Windows) Fix additional dependency on the msvcrt10.dll (#1974) - (Windows) Correctly decode a bytes object produced by pefile (#1981) - (Windows) Package ``pefile`` with pyinstaller. This partially undoes some changes in 3.2 in which the packaged pefiles were removed to use the pypi version instead. The pypi version was considerably slower in some applications, and still has a couple of small issues on PY3.
