[Baypiggies] Qt with Python-based API strategy?

I am really impressed with PyQt. I'd really like to hear if there are
problems with it before I sink a lot more effort into my PyQt coding.
The drawbacks may or may not apply to me as I am mostly interested in
doing rapid prototypes. If I come up with a really compelling app, I
can always port it back to C++ as needed.
Mostly I am impressed with QT. I don't believe in hand-coding GUIs and
the QT Designer works great without locking me into a huge IDE like MS
Visual Studio or even Eclipse. I tried Boa Constructor but it seemed
very rough compared to the QT Designer.
I hope to become more active with Python and BayPiggies starting this
summer -- currently finishing up some College classes and working full
time. Maybe we could start a little PyQT sub-group. I found setting up
for PyQt development with all the prerequisites was a bit tricky -
particularly on my old Redhat-9 system. Maybe a Virtual (or real) PyQt
install-fest would be in order this summer.
PS
Has anyone had problems installing new versions of Python on Redhat
systems? Touching the Python setup is scary for me as a beginner since
many of the Redhat system configuration utilities depend on Python.
