The problem remains -- I you look at
...python-2.2/site-packages/
you'll find some libs
With
	file ...
you can detect the type of a file

If you look at
	libsip*
you'll find, that there is *no*  bundle file.


So, you have to fiddle with
the generated "libtool" -- file as
Dimitri
described in
	http://mats.gmd.de/pipermail/pykde/2002-April/002594.html
	in B)

The main element for producing bundle libs:
for sip and for PyQt on the Mac OS X:
Look for
\\"x   ... \\
and change it to
\"x  ... \
After this, you have to
make ; make install

I the meantime, I rejected rc4 and did it all with rc2 on the Mac
and .. it works -- not perfect, e.g.
QToolButton()  does not work.
