Issue when trying to package with pyinstaller

[magik3r]

When attempting to package a .py script into an exe using --onefile the executable .exe file gives the following error: I have tried using --add-data-file "C:/(path to python site packages)/tkextrafont;tkextrafont" to no avail.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "tkextrafont\__init__.py", line 118, in load
    window.tk.eval("package require extrafont")
_tkinter.TclError: extra characters after close-brace

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "gui.py", line 49, in <module>
  File "tkextrafont\__init__.py", line 90, in __init__
    load(root)
  File "tkextrafont\__init__.py", line 120, in load
    if "libfontconfig" in e.message:
                          ^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: 'TclError' object has no attribute 'message'

Any ideas as to why this happens?

Sorry in advance if this is out of your scope.

Probably the same as #9

This is a bug though
