Error in py2app application - macos

Question

(OSX = Mountain lion) My app in /dist throws the error:

My setup.py (same error even without the - 'import os') looks like:
"""
This is a setup.py script generated by py2applet
Usage:
python setup.py py2app
"""
from setuptools import setup
APP = ['abc.py']
DATA_FILES = []
OPTIONS = {'argv_emulation': True, 'includes': ['psutil', 'time', 'socket', 'os']}
setup(
app=APP,
data_files=DATA_FILES,
options={'py2app': OPTIONS},
setup_requires=['py2app'],
)
And the scrip abc.py in question:
from psutil import cpu_times_percent
import socket
import time
serverHost = "localhost"
thisClient = socket.gethostname()
cpuStats = psutil.cpu_times_percent()
print cpuStats
currentTime = int(time.time())
s = socket.socket()
s.connect((serverHost,8080))
command = 'put cpu.usr ' + str(currentTime) + " " + str(cpuStats[0]) + " host="+ thisClient+ "\n"
s.sendall(command)
command = 'put cpu.nice ' + str(currentTime) + " " + str(cpuStats[1]) +" host="+ thisClient+ "\n"
s.sendall(command)
command = 'put cpu.sys ' + str(currentTime) + " " + str(cpuStats[2]) + " host="+ thisClient+ "\n"
s.sendall(command)
command = 'put cpu.idle ' + str(currentTime) + " " + str(cpuStats[3]) + " host="+ thisClient+ "\n"
s.sendall(command)
s.close()
Initially it was 'import psutil' which I changed to the 'from psutil...' as above. Included the 'import os...' here. But all combinations throw the same error. Elsewhere, I have seen 'import psutil' as a standard import and this is no different. What else could the error AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__all__' mean? Thx.

Your script file, abc.py, conflicts with the Python standard library Abstract Base Class module, abc. The simplest solution should be to just change the name of your file to something else.
