Pyinstaller Not Compiling Large Program in Python2.7 64-Bit Ubuntu

I have been having some difficulties compiling my Python program using Pyinstaller. My program has multiple modules and about 2000 lines of code. It uses TaurusScada as a sort of wrapper for PYQT, Numpy, and a few other modules. The platform is Python 2.7 and Ubuntu 15.04. I'm also using Pyinstaller 3.1. I was successful in compiling a small "Hello World" type application so I know it works. I am not married to Pyinstaller as I have tried cx_Freeze as well without success. Rather than leaving my entire code on here I'll start by leaving the traceback and error in hopes that someone can shed some light on this:

    66874 INFO: Processing hook   hook-gi.repository.GdkPixbuf.py

    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1335, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Any help is much appreciated.

i had a similar error today. You are missing the gdk-pixbuf library:

so just run:

sudo apt-get install libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev

and pyinstaller should go smoothly
