Hello - 

I am a new PyQT user, experimenting with the toolset. I installed the following 
components in a OSX 10.6 system:

python-2.7.1-macosx10.3 (32-bit)
qt-mac-opensource-4.7.2
qt-mac-opensource-4.7.2-debug-libs
PyQt-mac-gpl-4.8.3
sip-4.12.1

The SIP installation went through without issues, but I was not able to build 
PyQt. make install would fail here:

g++ -c -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -DNDEBUG -DSIP_PROTECTED_IS_PUBLIC 
-Dprotected=public -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_CORE_LIB -I. 
-I/Users/flavio/Downloads/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.8.3/qpy/QtCore 
-I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include/python2.7 
-I/mkspecs/macx-g++ -I/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers 
-I/usr/include -F/Users/flavio/Downloads/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.8.3/qpy/QtCore 
-F/Library/Frameworks -o sipQtCoreQt.o sipQtCoreQt.cpp
g++ -c -pipe -fPIC -O2 -Wall -W -DNDEBUG -DSIP_PROTECTED_IS_PUBLIC 
-Dprotected=public -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_CORE_LIB -I. 
-I/Users/flavio/Downloads/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.8.3/qpy/QtCore 
-I/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/include/python2.7 
-I/mkspecs/macx-g++ -I/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Headers 
-I/usr/include -F/Users/flavio/Downloads/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.8.3/qpy/QtCore 
-F/Library/Frameworks -o sipQtCoreQSysInfo.o sipQtCoreQSysInfo.cpp
g++ -headerpad_max_install_names -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -o QtCore.so 

with this error:

ld: library not found for -lqpycore
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [QtCore.so] Error 1
make: *** [install] Error 2

I eventually tracked down an issue here: See: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/pyqt@riverbankcomputing.com/msg17303.html.
That says that the inc_path is incorrect: inc_path = [sipcfg.py_inc_dir], and 
should be changed to this: 
inc_path = [sipcfg.py_inc_dir, sipcfg.sip_inc_dir]. 

Once I made this change, I got an incorrect ARCH error (arch=x86_64). SO I 
reconfigured and reinstalled SIP and PyQT selecting arch=i386 during 
configure.py. That resulted in a successful build and installation.

Now, I am testing this small program:

import sys
import platform

from PyQt4.QtCore import *
from PyQt4.QtGui import *

app = QApplication(sys.argv)

QMessageBox.information(app.parent(),
'PyQt Test',
'<center><font size=+1><b>Basic About Box</b></font><br>'
'Test</center><br><br>'
'An application to demonstrate GUI programming with Python and Qt.<br><br>'
'Uses Python v%s with Qt v%s and PyQt v%s on %s.' %
(platform.python_version(), QT_VERSION_STR, PYQT_VERSION_STR,
platform.system()))

This fails with this message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/flavio/pycon/PyQt/pyqt-I/01-about_box/about_box.py", line 4, in 
<module>
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
ImportError: 
dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PyQt4/QtCore.so,

Expected in: flat namespace

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/PyQt4/QtCore.so

It seems that I still have in incorrectly built or configure environment. Any 
advice here would be welcome. Should I remove everything and start over? if so, 
are there any recommendations about how to overcome the initial failure in 
building PyQt?

Thanks,
