PyInstaller and RStudio conflict - rowdy - Jun-21-2019

I am using pyinstaller to generate an executable.
However, pyinstaller fails to complete, leaving a broken file. It refers to 'usr/lib/rstudio/qt.conf'. Removing RStudio resolves the problem, but I don't really want to do this every time I need to update the executable or add something to it. I believe it is wrongly taking this qt.conf file when generating the executable?

This is the output from the terminal after running:

pyinstaller excel_splitter.py --hidden-import='packaging.specifiers' --hidden-import='packaging.requirements' --exclude-module matplotlib

Yes, dist and build folders and both generated. The executable is in the folder but doesn't work. When I remove RStudio, run the installer again, the executable works flawlessly.
