[Eric] TypeError: argument 1 of QsciScintilla() has an invalid type

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hi,

that error was seen previously with different versions of PyQt4 and 
QScintilla2. Unfortunately I cannot reproduce it over here and most times 
they disappeared. The cause is not known so far. Any help in tracing this 
problem would be welcomed.

Regards,
Detlev
