[Eric] Error launching Qt-Developer from Eric4

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hello,

it is probably caused by the way eric searches for the Qt tools. I adjusted it 
only to the official Qt installer, which creates an application bundle. Please 
give the paths of the tools as generated by macports. Maybe I can adjust 
to that as well.

*Hello*
*I am trying to follow the Eric4 minibrowser tutorial. I am at the stage where 
one needs to launch designer by double clicking the .ui file. I see an error 
window when i try open the .ui file with the following message -*


*"Could not start Qt-Designer. Ensure that it is available as ."*


*I am running mountain lion 10.8.2*
*I installed the following from macports -*


*Python 2.7.3*
*QT 4.8.4*
*PyQt 4.10.0*
*QScintilla 2.4.6*
*Sip 4.14.5*


*I then got the latest source code of Eric4 4.5.10 and installed that. I can 
also open designer from the command line. It's when I am trying to launch 
this from Eric4, I see the error. *


*I did a search for this error, and found a similar problem somebody had in 
2008. The message was slightly different and that thread did not help.*


*Another thing I should mention is that before I went the macports route.. I 
installed the complete bundle for PyQt from pyqtx. This was installed on 
python 2.7.2 I installed from python.org[1]. *
*I abandoned that route and went the macports way. *


*I did make sure I was using the right version of python when I was 
installing all the different packages.*


*Has anybody else seen this problem? Can you help me resolve this 
issue?*
