[erlang-questions] Erlang executable that reads command line arguments

Hi,

I'm getting weird error message when calling my escript from within a Python script

escript: exception error: undefined function getopt:parse/2

From the shell a standalone script works just fine... any idea ?

This is how I generate the escripted version of myapp :

#!/usr/bin/env escript
%% -*- erlang -*-
%%! -smp enable -sname make_myapp
main(_) ->	{ok, SourceCode} = file:read_file("myapp.erl"),
		{ok, _, BeamCode} = compile:file("myapp.erl", [binary, debug_info]),
		{ok, _, GetOpt} = compile:file("getopt.erl", [binary, debug_info]),
		escript:create("myapp", [shebang, {archive, [
					{"myapp.erl", SourceCode},
					{"myapp.beam", BeamCode},
					{"getopt.beam",GetOpt}],
					[]}
					]).

Thanks in advance
