Importing win32api (pywin32) in Briefcase Run
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
Importing win32api works during dev but not run. Note that pywin32 is added as a requirement and it is installed in site_packages.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create new briefcase project
- Add
pywin32as a requirement inpyproject.toml - Add
import win32apitoapp.py - Run
briefcase run -u
Expected behavior Application runs
Environment:
- Operating System: Windows 10 64 Bit
- Python version: 3.10
- Software versions:
- Briefcase: 0.3.9
Additional context I tried the workaround as suggested in a very old closed issue by adding the paths manually but it didn’t help (#102).

Ahh…ok. I can replicate this as well now. Given the existence of this post install script for
pywin32, it looks like this package will require some extra tweaking; the use-case here appears to fall outside of what they’re expecting. Although, I’ll have to defer to others on what exactly might need to be done.Closing as a duplicate of #381.
