OK, I've been trying to get this thing to build for quite some time now, and 
am just about to get really disgusted with the whole process.  In the past, I 
never really had that much trouble getting PyKDE to compile but now for some 
reason it just isn't cooperating.

I downloaded sip 3.1, PyQt 3.1 and PyKDE 3.8 all from riverbank - the latest 
versions of each.  I compiled sip and PyQt without too much trouble and they 
work just fine.  But PyKDE isn't finding the sip directory in /usr/local/
share/sip.

Here is the output:
        Building PyKDE 3.8 on linux2.

        Python version is 2.3
        Python parent directory is /usr/lib/python2.3
        Python library directory is /usr/lib/python2.3/config
        Python include directory is /usr/include/python2.3

        Home directory is /root

        sip code generator path (sip) is /usr/local/bin
        sip version is 3.1
        sip lib directory (libsip*) is /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages
        sip include directory (sipQt.h) is /usr/include/python2.3

        Qt3 parent directory is /usr/local/lib/qt3
        Qt3 lib directory (libqt-mt.so.3) is /usr/local/lib/qt3/lib
        Qt3 include directory (qglobal.h) is /usr/local/lib/qt3/include
        Qt version is 3.3.0b1

        PyQt lib directory is /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages
        PyQt lib version is 3.10

        *** Error: PyQt sip files directory -- not found
         (['/usr/local/share/sip/'], qtmod.sip)

        Please review the installation documentation before reporting errors
        When reporting errors, include the complete output of this program

That is with using the -v /usr/local/share/sip command line option to 
build.py.

Here is what I have done to try and fix the problem.  Jim Bublitz had posted a 
fix that involved making a couple of changes to the discover.py script, 
adding   self.pyQtSip = DiscoverPyQtSip ("qtmod.sip", pyQtSipPath) in the 
appropriate spot and making sure another line is indented correctly.  
Supposedly a new version of PyKDE was going to be released soon to fix these 
issues.  That didn't have any effect on it finding the sip directory. I've 
tried to make symlinks in an attempt to figure out what exact name it's 
looking for in a directory, but nothing is working at all.

I'm at about my wits end.  If anyone has any ideas I'm open to them.  All this 
just so I can use slickbar under superkaramba....
