Problem Installing PyQt-012

[Kenneth Payne]

Hi Martin -

Well, I didn't run ldconfig, but I had set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I didn't 
specify qtdir to the sip configure, but it seemed to find it (it was 
the X system it couldn't find).

Anyway, I've tried both now - and I still have the same error.

My commands were :

in the sip directory -

./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include 
--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
make
make install

in the PyQT directory -


ldconfig
./configure --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include 
--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
make
make install

This looks suspicious in the sip configure output:

.
.
checking for working aclocal... missing
checking for working autoconf... missing
checking for working automake... missing
checking for working autoheader... missing
checking for working makeinfo... found
.
.
.
checking for x... no
.
.

Should I be looking to install aclocal, autoconf and automake? Would 
it be easier to install from rpms?


By the way, I was on the noether site recently and was suprised (and 
pleased) to see my name on the Compuserve kppp script. Thanks. Of 
course, I'm no longer with compuserve (is anyone?). I've joined you on 
Freeserve.

Best wishes
