PyQt4 module error in SlackBuild for Slackware 12.2 under Slackware64 13...


Hi Forum,

I am trying to build PyQt4.Qtcore for my Slackware64 13 box...

So I went to slackBuilds, and grabbed the tarballs...

The link for PyQt-X11 is not active, so I grebbed the sources from http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/support/.

Anyway, edited the slackbuild to build it to x86_64, and ran it...

This error pops up... :

Code:
.........................................................

    import sipconfig
ImportError: No module named sipconfig
root@iskandhar:/home/alex/NewAge/SlackwareStuff/SlackSoft/SlackBuilds/PyQt4/pyqt4#

Does anyone has any Idea of what this may be...?

IMPORTANT INFO: I downgraded the version of Python to 2.5.2...
Is Python from SL 12.2 an older version than this... ?

Did you rebuild sip against the new (err older) Python 2.5? Sip is needed to build PyQt. On 13.0 its here.
Code:
# find /var/log/packages/ -type f | xargs grep 'sipconfig'
/var/log/packages/sip-4.9.3-i486-1:usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/sipconfig.py
EDIT: I didn't pay close enough attention to the Slackware64 part. The above info may be irrelevant regardless of whether sip is rebuilt against Python 2.5.

Hi LarryHaja

Sip is there allright :

Quote:
/var/log/packages/sip-4.9.3-x86_64-1:usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/sipconfig.py
Mustn't I rebuild it for Python 2.5.2...?

The thingie is there, but fails to be found... guess in case it would live in usr/.../Python2.5/site-packages/sipconfig.py PyQt4 would build... Anyway, dunno...

Is there some harm in grabbing the SlackBuild of sip, rebuilding the package, and installpkg it with my current version of Python...?

IMHO it is the most sane way of throwing it where it is more likely to be searched for... What do you think...?

Hi Forum

My sipconfig.py was in usr/lib/Python2.5/site-packages/sipconfig.py...

So, to make it be in usr/lib64/Python2.5/site-packages, I removepkg Python2.5, changed the SlackBuild so that Python libraries would land in /usr/lib64, and also changed sip slackbuild so that PYTHONLIB=/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages.

Reinstalled "new version" of Python-2.5.2, as well as Sip...

Code:
root@iskandhar:/home/alex# ls /usr/lib64 | grep python
libboost_python.so
libboost_python.so.1.41.0
libpython2.6.so
libpython2.6.so.1.0
python2.5
python2.6

The problem seems to be that the PyQt4 slackbuild for Slackware 12.2 still does not find sipconfig.py

Code:
root@iskandhar:/home/alex# python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Dec 28 2009, 20:51:21)
[GCC 4.3.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sipconfig.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named sipconfig.py
>>> import sipconfig
Traceback (most recent call last):
  >>> import sipconfig
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named sipconfig
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named sipconfig
This is the instruction in /tmp/SBo/PyQt-x11-gpl-4.5.4/configure.py tha causes the slackbuild to fail...

What can I do, besides of "shifting" site-packages from /usr/lib/python2.5 to /usr/lib64/python2.5 ( which I have already done... )

Was this a wise decision anyway...?
