Without digging deeper into the Qt Assistant problem I know that there
was a slight name change from Qt 4.3 to Qt 4.4 for the QtAssistant. I
think it is called "Assistant_adp" now. So check your Qt version and
see if that might be the problem.

After some experimentation, python now works (astonished surprise) -
the main trick appear to be to cpoy the python lib dir structure

qt-assistant still does not work. The assisstant help issue appears
to be caused by paraview invoking the wrong command line, but I
don't understand why.
Also...I forgot to ask first time around.
why are the iceT DLLs installed into lib when all other dlls are
installed into the bin directory. (Is this a simple mistake, or is
ther a real reason?)

I tried to create an install package of (tweaked) paraview +
plugins on windows.
All runs fine except that
1) Python dlls (etc) are not included in the distribution
2) QtAssistant won't run - so help is unavailable.
Are there special tricks required to make paraview include the
necessary python dll's (and init scripts?) - I'm using python 2.6.
I notice that the paraview 3.4 release on the kitware website uses
python 2.5. Should I revert to 2.5 to solve the problem. Are things
'hard coded' for 2.5 that don't work for 2.6.
If I use the zip installer, I can manually add python libs to the
distribution, if I uses the NSIS installer I cannot. The
ParaView3.4 release uses NSIS - so was some secret process involved
in adding these files?
For QtAssistant, I don't know why it won't run. any clues welcome
(path?)
NB. I have not set any
PATH,
PV_PLUGIN_PATH,
PYTHON_XXX_???
Variables. should I setup a batch file which initializes these and
then calls paraview (plugins load fine if they are in the plugins
directory)
Many thanks
JB
