Gary,

I've been making RPMs for Red Hat, but I've been slacking lately (due to 
actually making money programming PyQt!) I think I got everything to work 
once on Red Hat 8.0, and I may have even uploaded the RedHat 8.0 RPMs.

Check out pykde.sf.net. Download the "spec" files for the package you are 
trying to compile. There may be some patch files you want to look at as well.

I can't recall what I did to get it to compile correctly, but whatever it was, 
it worked (I think).

Go ahead and email me privately if that isn't helping much, and I'll look into 
it in more detail and give a better answer.
