OK, I've just tried this, and it's one of those annoying cases where it works for me, but not for you. :-/ > > > If I use the About->Plugins menu in designer I > > > can see a libpythonplugin.so folder but no entries underneath it. > > > > > > Any idea how I can debug this further? > > > > Can you run the examples/designer/plugins/plugins.py PyQt example and let > > us know if the plugins appear? > > plugins don't appear > > > Can you tell us where you have installed your plugins? > > I'm running from the examples directory without installing the plugins > anywhere. Yes, I tried that, too, and it just worked, so I'm wondering if something is misconfigured somehow. Just for comparison, I have installed these packages for PyQt4 and Qt Designer: python-qt4 4.4.4-2ubuntu6 Python bindings for Qt4 python-qt4-common 4.4.4-2ubuntu6 Shared files for PyQt4 python-qt4-doc 4.4.4-2ubuntu6 Documentation and examples for PyQt4 qt4-designer 4.5.0-0ubuntu4.1 graphical designer for Qt 4 applications I've also tried using both Python 2.5 and 2.6, and both worked. Is there anything unusual about your Ubuntu installation?
