[PyKDE] Problem installing PyQt 3.5 with Qt 3.0.4...

[Laurent Claustre]

I've got the same problem compiling on solaris 7 and 8, problem comes 
from the Python.h file which
include unistd.h where truncate is defined has truncate64 (POSIX Large 
Support).
To make PyQt working patch the your-sip-dir/siplib/sipQt.h file like that:
#include <Python.h>
#if defined(truncate)
# undef truncate
#endif
#include <qobject.h>
#include <sip.h>
 
Trollteck takes care  about all the  POSIX LFS redefinitions and does 
such an undef (e.g. your-qt-dir/src/kernel/qapplication_x11.cpp:6157)

If someone can propose a better way to patch this bug ?
