"Nor am I alone (although this particular problem seems to be unreported)."

... so is the problem reported, or not?

Re: New Python Libraries

I am not alone in having this sort of error in compilation (the sip generated code not aligning to the Qt API), but this problems with the wrapper for this particular call hasn't appeared on the list (or anywhere else via Google). The problem of one of the wrappers having this error has been reported, however, and the usual recommendation seems to be to just skip that module. Since this is a core module, I cannot do that.

Again, I'm not slamming this project. I've only tried on SuSE 7.3 and 8.0, and maybe SuSE has directories or library locations different than those that sip assumes. Or maybe sip is borked. Or maybe it's my fault somehow. It's just a fairly common problem according to what I've read, so my only observation is that the compilation process (which, as a side note, does not use autoconf but rather a python script) could be a bit more robust. YMMV.

The end result looks great - it's just a little rough to get it installed in my experience. My monitor died yesterday, so I haven't done anything with it today - maybe I'll have it running in the next twenty minutes :).
