I'd guess (without having tried it myself) that your problem is that it needs to run a configure script to generate Makefiles and the like, and in specifying a CompileScript you've overloaded the default behavior, which is ./configure %c make (cf. http://fink.sourceforge.net/doc/packaging/reference.php?phpLang=en#fields , under the CompileScript heading). Try taking out your CompileScript. Also, once it builds, if the package encodes python version information in itself in any way, you're going to have to make this a versioned package (-py23 and -py24 variants) and depend on the appropriate flavor of py-qt. -- Alexander K.
