[PyKDE] Post Build Runtime problems libqtcmodule.so: undefined symbol:static_QUType_ptr

[Liam Herron]

So I went back and built this thing with the 2.96 compiler.
When I try to run this thing in python I get:

[GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>import qt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/qt.py", line 47, in ?
    import libqtc
ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/libqtcmodule.so: 
undefined symbol: static_QUType_ptr
>>>


So I then check the library for that symbol:
nm /usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/libqtcmodule.so |
grep static_QUType_ptr
         U static_QUType_ptr

so it is undefined in that library.


I start hunting for how this library is built and what files need it and I
find that it is really only:
  sipqtProxyqt.moc

that needs it.  I then look at the headers this brings in:

[root at linux2 qt]# grep include sipqtProxyqt.moc
#include "moc_sipqtProxyqt.h"
#include <qmetaobject.h>
#include <qapplication.h>
#include <private/qucomextra_p.h>
#error "cannot be used with the include files from this version of Qt."


Ans then go one by one into the .h files recursively and find NO
include for "qt.h"  which would of included <private/qucom_p.h> which
has the definition:
# grep static_QUType_ptr *
qucom_p.h:extern Q_EXPORT QUType_ptr static_QUType_ptr;
#

So how come this is the case?  I don't think an upgrade in the comiler
would have done me any good.

Anyone have any thoughts on this?
