Fwd: Re: [PyKDE] Installing eric3

[Sergei Mikhailov]

When I point yum against the following repository:
baseurl=ftp://apt.us.kde-redhat.org/linux/kde-redhat/apt/kde-redhat/1/yum/stable/

It seems to get confused. So I tried manually, and here are the issues.
It seems that I first need to install qt. But qt requires "themer" to be
installed, but non on the packages provides it. 

Since qscintilla requries version 3.2 of qt (which I could not intall)
because of themer, I cannot install qscintilla.

Basically, it is a mess, I just home eric3 is worth all this time :(
