Building new bundles

+The standalone bundles are built with PyInstaller.
+
+If you are inside a development virtualenv, you should be able to install it
+together with some extra development dependencies with::
+
+ pip install -r pkg/requirements-dev.pip
+
+And then just do::
+
+ make bundle
+
+To build a new bundle.
+
+There's also a script that automates re-creating the virtualenv from which the
+packaging takes place::
+
+ pkg/build_bundle_with_venv.sh
+
+To ensure a repeatable system-wide environment, you can build those bundles from
+within a docker container. First you need to create the container::
+
+ make docker_container
+
+and then you can launch the above script inside that container::
+
+ make bundle_in_docker
+
+A new bundle is created by the CI for every commit using this procedure
+involving docker, you can read more about the bundles in the :ref:`qa section
+<qa>`.
