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><font size="3"><br></font></div><span style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">In your last email you said "But eric5 won't work or install with 2.7,...". </span><br style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; "><span style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">That is correct because eric5 needs Python3 to be installed and executed. </span><br style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; "><span style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; ">Please make sure you
