Hi All, I have been trying to create an IOSlave using PyKDE. Documentation and demos are fairly thin on the ground, but I ended up using the following as resources:
http://www.diotavelli.net/PyQtWiki/IOSlavesTutorial http://www.boddie.org.uk/david/Projects/Python/KDE/ I have downloaded the files pykde-components-2004-01-20.tar.bz2 from David's site and set about installing his IOSlaves so I can play around with them. Unfortunately I can't get the build script to work. It continues to complain that it can't find the sips libraries in my python lib directories. They are there, but build.py is looking for "libsip*" wheras the sip related libraries I have (after installing the latest binaries from the sourceforge site linked of the PyKDE site) are /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/sipconfig.py /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/sip.so So... I create a softlink "libsip.so" to "sip.so". Then I get a similar complaint about other libraries, which I fix in a similar manner. It can't find PyQT or PyKDE for the same reason. When I get it finding everything the build starts, but borks on a SIP operation (which I won't post here just yet). My main question is: have there been major changes to the way these libraries are used since these demos were written? If not why might I be getting all these errors? How would I go about getting an updated build.py, details.py etc -- I couldn't find where they came from. Thanks in advance, Luke. _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
