Problem Installing PyQt-012

[Kenneth Payne]

Boudewijn -

Thanks for your continued interest. Your suggestion about removing
config.cache and trying again was great. I did that and now the sip 
configure
runs without any errors. I really thought that was the solution. But 
no, when
I run the PyQt "make install" I still get the same error. This is 
weird as
there are now no errors in the configure or make of either sip or PyQt 
and yet
the make install of PyQt still fails.

As for the development package - I have the qtdevel-1.44-52 rpm 
installed.

Phil did kindly send me a private e-mail on the problem. He wrote:
---
Because configure failed to find X, it disabled Qt support (even
though it didn't tell you that's what it was doing).  configure uses
the standard AC_PATH_XTRA macro to find X - so I don't think the
problem is related to SIP/PyQt/PyKDE.

You need to work out why it's not finding X.
----
However, thanks to you, the sip configure *is* now finding X but I 
still have
the same problem. Perhaps some other files need to be deleted ( I've 
tried
deleting the PyQT config.cache but it made no difference).

Best wishes
