[PyKDE] Install Error on Solaris

[Glenn Takanishi]

Hi,

I get an "Arithmetic Exception - core dumped" error message
in the "make install" script when building the PyQt modules
on Solaris 5.6.  We're using KDE 1.1 and Qt 1.42.

I've tried to install PyQt on Solaris the same as on Red Hat
Linux 6.0.  Generally, Solaris and Linux installs using
gcc are very similar.  The install succeeds on Linux.

I get the following error when importing the qt module.

us10-46:/opt/pyapps/pyQt> python

I configured both sip and PyQt with the
--with-qt-includes=/usr/local/qt/include
and --with-qt-libraries=/usr/local/qt/lib options.

However, I don't know if the unresolved modules return in the ldd
command
below matters.

        libqt.so.1 =>    /usr/local/qt/lib/libqt.so.1

        symbol not found: PyExc_NameError

        ...
        (There's more symbols not found)

Any suggestions or hints as to what might be wrong will be sincerely
appreciated.  The PyQt program is remarkable ... gives python the best
gui.
