[PyKDE] Problem building PyQt, QScintilla, and eric

[Greg Fortune]

You'll want to build and install qscintilla before building sip.

General upgrade order:

1) build/install qscintilla
2) build/install sip
3) build/install PyQt
4) go to bed
5) wake up in the morning.  Congrats.  PyQt is done ;o)
6) build/install eric
