Thanks Phil,

I took your suggestion to heart and downloaded the latest version of Python and installed it.
Of course PyQt worked after that.


cheers,

Larry

Hello,

I have successfully got PyQt up and running on my SuSE 9.2 machine.
I would also like to get it running on my SuSE 8.2 machine as well.
However during configure I get the following error message:

Do you accept the terms of the license? yes
SIP 3.5.75 is being used.
An internal error occured.  Please report all the output from the program,
including the following traceback, to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "configure.py", line 1042, in ?
   main(sys.argv)
 File "configure.py", line 936, in main
   sipcfg.error("This version of PyQt requires SIP v%s or later" %
sipcfg.version_to_string(minv))
 File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/sipconfig.py", line 166, in
__getattr__
   raise AttributeError, "\"%s\" is not a valid configuration value or
user
option" % name
AttributeError: "error" is not a valid configuration value or user option

According to the the SuSE package information, the sip version on the
SuSE 8.2 CDs is 3.5-75. The python version is 2.2.2-82 Because of
this python version I cannot use the sip version 4.2.

Can anyone tell me which version of sip I need to configure PyQt ?
Also, can anyone tell me what I must do to get the PyQt error message
above to fill in the parameters with numerical values so that I can
see what it is trying to tell me ?



Assuming you are using PyQt v3.14 then (with that version of Python) you need a current SIP v3 snapshot. Note that that particular combination isn't tested - it may not even build. If you can, get a more modern version of Python and bring everything up to date.

Phil
