That is not an eric5 fault.

The package manager says all is installed. I have also install Qt4, QScintilla-gpl-2.6 and PyQt4 from online, compiled and installed them. Also Sip and one or two other packages but still, no go. Have eric4 installed from the package manager, it is an earlier release. But eric5 won't work or install with 2.7, so I'm left with the puzzle of
getting eric5 installed? My release of Linus, Ubuntu, doesn't offer eric5 as an option in package manager.</font> </div><div class="yui_3_2_0_16_132993965395761"><font size="3"><br></font></div><div class="yui_3_2_0_16_132993965395761"><font size="3">Thanks</font></div><div class="yui_3_2_0_16_132993965395761"><font size="3">Ken</font></div> </div> </div></body></html>
