How to make python program standalone executable under linux

I have done some research but I am not looking for a way to make a script and run the .py file like answered in this question. What do I use on linux to make a python program executable

I am looking to "complie" the .py to a standalone program so users in a linux environment like ubuntu can run it out of the box without installing python and the libraries I used because no root access. I found py2exe for windows. I would think there is a way to achieve this in linux?

Doesn't pyinstaller compile under the OS you are using?

if you want a windows exe - use pyinstaller in windows environment...

For Linux, use pyinstaller in Linux.

You can use Jython to compile it to JVM. Using the Jython compiler

jythonc [options] [module]*

This would, however, require Java to be installed...

There are also a couple of other resources to compile Python. From Compiling Python Code, some cross-platform tools are

but I do not know anything about those.
