[Eric] eric5 on Mac OS X 10.6.8 - QWidget error

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hello,

just to inform everybody who might not have realized it. The eric 
distributions contains a README file explaining the steps to install 
eric4/eric5 on a Mac. Mac OS X is an officially supported platform since 
November last year.

The eric install script even generates an application bundle.

Regards,
Detlev
