Actually the GPL 2.0 text states that you must provide a copy of the 
license with the program.

Our situation is even more problematic because we are both a binary and 
source distribution even for the end user install, because the python 
.py source files are there.

I'm not sure what the right thing is, although on many linuxes you can 
install binary applications without being shown the GPL for each 
package.  This is true even in the highly ideological Debian 
distribution.
