Compilling pyqt3 on Kubuntu Trusty error
Hello forum,
I am trying to compile pyqt3 (18v3.18.15 tarball) in Kubuntu 14.4 (Trusty) but I keep getting an error message shown below:
Code:
sip/qt/qimage.sip: In function ‘const char** PyQt_qt_ListToArray(PyObject*)’:
sip/qt/qimage.sip:535:13: error: ‘ANY’ was not declared in this scope

make[1]: *** [sipqtcmodule.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/roy/Downloads/PPyQt-x11-gpl-3.18.1/qt'
make: *** [all] Error 2
I already have QT3 (v 3.3.8b) installed and I have tried several versions of SIP. And I have tried several versions of python (2.6 and 2.7) but I keep getting the same error message regardless of which version I use, so it makes me believe my problem is not a version mis-match. Kubuntu uses pyqt4 and qt4 which are not what I need.
The reason I am trying to install these older programs is because I have an old app called hdpvrassistant that was written with these older programs about 4 years ago. Hdpvrassistant will not compile with the version of Kubuntu I presently have using APT. The Kubuntu package manager does not have these older programs such as qt3, pyqt3, sip in their repositories so that is why I'm using tarballs of older versions.
It may be important to note that I had to add "#include <stddef.h and #include <stdlib.h>" to every .cpp file while compiling QT3 since Kubuntu has a newer version of libc than what the programs were written for but adding these two entries to pyqt3 does not prevent the error above. They worked for qt3 but not for pyqt3.
So it seems to me I may need to add other entries similar to "#include <stddef.h and #include <stdlib.h>" to pyqt3 to get it to compile but I do not know which entries to add other than the two I already tried.
Would it help if I used a lower version of gcc perhaps?
I am hoping some of you can lead and guide me or give me a hint as to what to do to get pyqt3 to compile.
Thanks abundently,
Roy

Since you are compiling old pyqt3 which won't be knowing about latest gcc supported C++11 which gcc is defaulting so it produces error.
You may have to run g++ with options -std=c++98 or -std=c++03. Usually we set CXXFLAGS environment varaible while running ./configure.
I don't know how pyqt3 is configure or built. If you give build steps details it may help.
Also setting -Wno-narrowing -Wno-missing-field-initializers to CXXFLAGS or passing it to g++ may help, because they are causing that error.

Hello Veerain,
Thanks for taking an interest in my problem.
The way I install pyqt3 is to run "configure.py" instead of "configure, since there is no "configure", using the line below, while in the pyqt3 directory:
Code:
/usr/local/bin/python2.6 configure.py -w
The "w" switch is for debugging info.
The code below consists of the resuslts of running "configure.py" and below it is the results of running "make". I ommited much of the depreciation warning to keep the file from being too long. Running "configure.py" invokes my version of python also, as you can see on the first line.
Code:
roy@roy-kubuntu:~/Downloads/PyQt-x11-gpl-3.18.1$ /usr/local/bin/python2.6 configure.py -w

I don't know much about configuring gcc and/or c++ or even programming. I am still learning.
I'm hoping you can shed more light on this for me.
Regards,

Roy,
A caveat: I'm a C++/Qt user.
The link that you posted in an earlier thread ( link), does not have a form.ui file or form.py file generated by pyuic. I found a form.py file here.
The changes required to make this app run with PyQt4 are relatively minor. I am attaching patch files for main.py and form.py.
Executing main.py, I get the form up and all of the buttons seem to work but I don't have a Hauppage device to test.

Thank you norobro !
It worked fine with my hardware. I did have to comment out the "qt" line in the config.py file that did not have a patch (below).
Code:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os.path
import commands
import main
#from qt import *
To me you are very smart to be able to program like that and make patches. I am not there yet.
So, thanks again for your time and trouble, but if you're like me, it was all fun.
Best regards,
Roy |

You're welcome. I'm glad it worked!
I migrated from Qt3 to Qt4 years ago so rather than smarts, it's experience. As I'm sure you noticed the changes were in syntax not logic.
Regarding patches, check out the diff manual page. The command to generate a patch file: diff -u old.file new.file > patch.file
