Why would you want to convert it to a windows executable on a linux platform? Anyway, I'd say you have two options:

Use py2exe with wine (a Windows emulator). I've done this, and it works
If that is not possible, you could try pyinstaller. I haven't tried it, but it seems to be sort of the same, but multi-platform

@timger It looks like you need to install libssl-dev first. – xdazz Aug 22 '11 at 06:39
