Hi,

A late reply, but one for the record. If you create a standalone virtual
environment, you will need to install pyqt/pyside inside that environment.
For pyqt that can be a challenging process. What I do on Linux is to create
symlinks to the pyqt system install inside my standalone virtual
environment.

Some references I found useful:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18042919/how-to-install-pyqt5-on-a-new-virtualenv-and-work-on-an-idle
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1961997/is-it-possible-to-add-pyqt4-pyside-packages-on-a-virtualenv-sandbox

Which inspired me to create a utility script that creates/updates a
scipy-stack standalone virtualenv with PyQt symlinks:

Cheers,
