Trouble compiling PyQT 3.1

[Colin Brown]

Hi Peter

I have recently installed the latest PyQt under Mandarke Linux 8.2 for i586
and ended up doing the following:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------

Put tmake_1.8.tar.gz into /usr/local
Put sip-3.3.2.tar.gz into /usr/local
Put PyQt_3.3.2.tar.gz into /usr/local

gunzip tmake_1.8.tar.gz
tar -xvf tmake_1.8.tar
gunzip sip-3.3.2.tar.gz
tar -xvf sip-3.3.2.tar.gz
gunzip PyQt_3.3.2.tar.gz
tar -xvf PyQt_3.3.2.tar.gz

TMAKEPATH=/usr/local/tmake_1.8/lib/linux-g++
export TMAKEPATH

cd /usr/local/sip-3.3.2
python build.py -q /usr/lib/qt2 -i /usr/lib/qt2/include -g
/usr/local/tmake_1.8/bin/tmake -l qt-mt
make
make install

cd /usr/local/PyQt_3.3.2
python build.py -q /usr/lib/qt2 -g /usr/local/tmake_1.8/bin/tmake -l qt-mt
make
make install

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------

I hope you find this useful.

There was a compile error that have yet to follow up on to do with glu but
apart from that I
ended up with a pyuic that works okay with output from Qt_Designer except
for the table and
custom widgets. When I get time I will follow up on these.

Cheers
