| hi there,
|
| i tried to get a knoppix going with eric3 (to teach basic python programming in
| a non equipped room)
|
| i manage to install an eric 3.5.0 with apt-get but i just can't compile the
| latest versions (or use qscintilla) !
|
| here's what i tried (without really knowing what i'm doing  - i'm learning to
| use debian at the same time...):
|
| 1.installing these deb packages:
| 	lots of libqt3-xxx	
| 	Qt3 Designer (3.3.3)
| 	libqscintilla4 (1.3-1)  in fact i don't know if this is right, because there is
| no « qscintilla » package. libqscintilla4 = qscintilla ???
|
| 	the problem might be that this version (1.3) : it says on the eric3 webpage
| that i need QScintilla 1.0 or higher. in the install.py script for eric3.6
| however, it needs QScintilla 1.4 or higher. that might screw up things...
|
| sip4 (4.1.1-1), python-sip4-qt3 (4.1.1-1) and  python-sip4-dev
| python-qtext, python2.3-qtext (3.13-4)
| strangely enough, i can't install the python-pyqt (2.5-4) package because it
| needs a python < 2.2
|
| so when i try to install eric3 now, it tells me :
| Sorry, you must have QScintilla 1.4 or snapshot-20041001 or higher.
|
| as i couldn't find a qscintilla >=1.4 debian package, i wanted to compile myself:
|
| 2. compiling qscintilla directly (as in qscintilla's readme)
|
| (i tried the snapshot and 1.61 => same result:)
|
| qmake qscintilla.pro => no problem (no comment)
| make ==> i get loads of errors, starting like this:
|
| g++ -c -pipe -D_REENTRANT -O2 -w -fPIC -DQEXTSCINTILLA_MAKE_DLL -DQT -DSCI_LEXER
| -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_SHARED
| -I/usr/local/qt/mkspecs/default -I. -I/usr/local/qt/include/QtGui
| -I/usr/local/qt/include/QtCore -I/usr/local/qt/include -I. -I../include -I../src
| -I. -o qextscintilla.o qextscintilla.cpp
| In file included from qextscintilla.cpp:28:
| qextscintilla.h:29:25: qguardedptr.h: No such file or directory
| In file included from qextscintilla.h:32,
|                  from qextscintilla.cpp:28:
| qextscintillabase.h:2032: error: type specifier omitted for parameter `WFlags'
|
| and in fact, there is no file qguardedptr.h here, there is one of this name in
| /usr/include/qt3/ and another one in /usr/local/qt/include/Qt
| these may be remainings from my different installation attempts :-(
| maybe i have to move the qscintilla folder somewhere before making???
|
| 3.compiling qt

Forget compiling the stuff, just get all the debs and take the 3.6 package from
http://diotavelli.net/files/deb/binary
It's half-official, i.e. it gets into main the minute I am DD (which can take
several weeks to months).
And there is no python-pyqt package you need to install, only python-qt3.
As far as I remember, eric has some classes to provide backwards compatibility
with old qscintilla versions, at least I am using eric 3.6 w/ qscintilla 1.3.
And I did not notice any problem yet.
Detlef? Might there be a problem?
Ricardo, what about new qscintilla packages?


greetings

Torsten
