Comment (by jdemeyer):

 Replying to [ticket:21087 vdelecroix]:
 > Note that sip requires flex and bison...

 Are you sure? The `README` says
 {{{
 If you are using a copy of SIP cloned from the Mercurial repository, or
 are
 using a Mercurial archive, then you have to prepare it first before you
 follow
 the normal installation instructions.

 The preparation is done using the ``build.py`` script which can be found
 in the
 same directory as this ``README`` file.  If it isn't there then you
 probably
 have a packaged release and should just follow the normal installation
 instructions.

 The ``build.py`` script requires that ``flex`` and ``bison``, and the
 Mercurial
 Python bindings are installed.  If you want to create the HTML
 documentation
 then Sphinx must also be installed.
 }}}

 So I understand that flex and bison are not needed for a "packaged
 release" (which is how it should be!).
