I’ve recently written a small program in Python, which I would like to package for various environments. Namely:

  • RPM
  • Arch Linux
  • FreeBSD
  • AppImage
  • Windows
  • macOS

I do not run Windows and my Mac hasn’t been updated since 2008, so virtualisation seems to be the best solution. However, all of my boxes are relatively low-performance, so I have not yet managed to get a decent install of Windows 10 in virt-manager.

So, can anyone suggest some versions or mods of Windows, or an alternate method, that would let me run Py2EXE and InnoSetup?

And does anyone have a guide on installing macOS under KVM or QEMU?

    might work for you, and it might not. But do let us know if it does!

    sort of works some of the time. I personally didn’t find it satisfactory for my use case. It might be suitable for you.

      I never had much luck with ReactOS, but I’ll give it a shot.

      Thanks for the help!
