I fresh installed Python37-32 on win10-64 All requirements seem to be satisfied and my hello world python file is executing
if __name__ == '__main__' :
print("hello world")
However when I try to use pyinstaller
pyinstaller hello.py
It finishes with error
5764 INFO: Building PKG (CArchive) PKG-00.pkg completed successfully.
5764 INFO: Bootloader c:\users\xxxxxxx\appdata\local\programs\python\python37-32\lib\site-packages\PyInstaller\bootloader\Windows-32bit\run_d.exe

Fatal error: PyInstaller does not include a pre-compiled bootloader for your
platform. For more details and instructions how to build the bootloader see
<https://pyinstaller.readthedocs.io/en/stable/bootloader-building.html>
It is a basic installation on windows, I should not have to recompile any bootloader manually (I am used to pyinstaller with older python versions and never had problems). Where should I look to solve this issue ?
EDIT
The error shows up in python37-32 but not in python37 (64bits)
Download pyinstaller and install from source instead using pip.
python setup.py install
Then if your system is 64bit, the 64bit bootloader is built altough the python37-32 needs 32 bit bootloader.
In the source cd bootloader and run python ./waf all --target-arch=32bit as explained here
Then copy run.exe from build folder to pyinstaller 32bit bootloader folder.
An issue has been opened on pyinstaller github.
