Incompatibility with comtypes>=1.4.5 (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'comtypes.stream')

[Avasam]

Describe the bug
With comtypes 1.4.5 or above, my PyInstaller frozen application fails with "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'comtypes.stream'", supposing it fails to include comtypes.stream.

• Which hook/library isn't working? comtypes
• Does the error get raised while building or when running? running

To Reproduce
A minimal example file:

import comtypes.client
# A DLL that can be loaded on your machine, in my case, a lib was calling:
comtypes.client.GetModule("qedit.dll") 

PyInstaller command:

pyinstaller test.py --onefile

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 3, in <module>
  File "comtypes\client\_generate.py", line 128, in GetModule
  File "comtypes\client\_generate.py", line 232, in generate
  File "comtypes\client\_generate.py", line 280, in _get_known_namespaces
  File "importlib\__init__.py", line 126, in import_module
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1204, in _gcd_import

  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1140, in _find_and_load_unlocked
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'comtypes.stream'

Expected behavior
No error. Probably through a hook letting pyinstaller know that importing comtypes.client._generate has a chance of requiring comtypes.stream.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10.0.19045 Build 19045
• Python Version: 3.11.6
• Version of pyinstaller-hooks-contrib: 2024.8
• Version of PyInstaller 6.10.0

Additional context
Adding --hidden-import comtypes.stream works. But comtypes is a big/popular enough library I think it's valuable to work with it "as-is".

Adding --hidden-import comtypes.stream to my build command didn't help.

Really? It works for me.

Really? It works for me.

Just tried again with the minimal repro and that works. Maybe I didn't pass it correctly when I tried in my project. I'll update my comment in the issue. The rest of the issue is still accurate.

Might be worth adding all of these to hiddenimports.
