Hi all, perhaps a short question:
in the ML is stated that the best way for installation of QT4-X11 and PyQT4 is via fink. So, they both base on the fink installed python, am I right? may I prevent this ? How does the precompiled PythonOCC fit. As stated it is build against the system python (the Mac one, not the fink one) I´m confused... best regards, Helmut Am 20.04.2011 um 16:15 schrieb Helmut Müller: > Hi all, > > I´m new to the list, so best regards to everybody.
