[Eric] problem running eric4

[Vincent Schut]

Extra info that I forgot to mention:

- this is on linux (gentoo), amd64 system.
- the eric4 README says that, when compiling pyqt, I have to make sure 
the Qsci module is included. I don't see this when compiling PyQt. How 
can I make sure that PyQt includes the Qsci module? Or is the README wrong?
- of course I also compiled and installed QScintilla's python bindings. 
This generated a Qsci.so in the PyQt4 dir in site-packages. Is this the 
Qsci that is mentioned in the README (see above point)?
- this is on Python 2.5.

Hope this is enough info to tackle the problem.

Cheers,
Vincent.
