[PyKDE] Importing Problem (somewhat long)

[Steven Faulconer]

I dislike replying to my own message, but I've forgotten to add a thing 
or to.

During my multiple compile attempts, I never did a 'make install' after 
my initial installation. Once the compile finishes, I copy '*.a' from 
the $QTDIR/lib  to my installation directory (/usr/lib/qt3/lib). I've 
done this with both a 'prefix' and without a 'prefix' in my 
configuration. I'm running a totally fresh compile now, and will not do 
a 'make install'. If anyone has any thoughts, I'd very much like to hear 
them.

Thanks again.

Steven
