Fatal error with using py2exe with dpkt about dpkt HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi, I ran into the same problem today (2 years after the issue was reported). I
solved it by monkeypatching the original code at 3 places

Basically, it involves modifying function __load_types() at 3 locations:
ethernet.py
ip.py
ppp.py

You need to replace 

        d = dict.fromkeys([ x[:-3] for x in os.listdir(os.path.dirname(__file__) or
'.') if x.endswith('.py') ])

with:

    try:
        d = dict.fromkeys([ x[:-3] for x in os.listdir(os.path.dirname(__file__) or
'.') if x.endswith('.py') ])
    except OSError:
        # py2exe compatibility
        tmp = __import__('dpkt')
        if hasattr(tmp, '__loader__'):
            zipfiles = tmp.__loader__._files.keys()
            d = dict.fromkeys([x.split(os.sep)[-1][:-4] for x in zipfiles if 'dpkt'
in x])

Hope it helps someone. The solution isn't elegant, but works for me.
