I am a PyQT newb trying to install on OS X.<br>
<br>
>From the docs, it seems I must first install SIP using the following commands:<br>
1. python configure.py<br>
2. make<br>
3. make install<br>
<br>
But is get "permission denied" during the make install.<br>
<br>
The documentation says "Depending on your system you may require root or administrator privileges", so i tried<br>
sudo -u admin make install<br>
<br>
which does not seem to accept the password. (admin is an account with admin privileges)<br>
I have tried to repair permissions and I've also tried installing SIP while logged in as admin - same result.<br>
<br>
Can anyone help?<br>
<br>
output of step 1<br>
----------------------<br>
This is SIP 4.9 for Python 2.5.1 on darwin.<br>
The SIP code generator will be installed in<br>
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin.<br>
The SIP module will be installed in /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages.<br>
The SIP header file will be installed in<br>
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/include/python2.5.<br>
The default directory to install .sip files in is<br>
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/share/sip.<br>
The platform/compiler configuration is macx-g++.<br>
