If so, you might need to find a location for qmake outside the /usr/bin directory. Traditionally, on Debian-based systems, I believe that qmake (for Qt 3) is located at /usr/share/qt3/bin/qmake, so the version for Qt 4 _may_ be located at /usr/share/qt4/bin/qmake as well. It might be worth trying that: python configure.py -q /usr/share/qt4/bin/qmake > Is this not the right qmake, or should I be specifying it in a different > way?

That would be easiest - if a later version of Kubuntu is supplied with a more up-to-date version of PyQt4, you may need to obtain a backported version from somewhere, or someone to package it for you. :-) David _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [email protected] http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
