Charlie,
Thanks for the response. Part of the reason I was trying to use
virtualenv was to 'disconnect' from a few years of builds (some successful/
some unsuccessful). I was hoping to avoid doing a 'clean install' of my machine
and reinstall of of the apps etc.
The latest attempt is to perform a 'new' install of PyQT and then copy
the site-packages directory into the virtual environment (or possibly sym link
it). I think this one shows the most promise for getting an environment that
will not only run my PyQT apps but allow me to build a distribution version
with py2app (which I have NEVER managed to be able to do!!)
I'll let you all know how it goes, Iv'e got my finger's crossed!
