That usually means, that there are incompatible versions installed. The sip 
version installed and the one used to build PyQt are incompatible. If you 
have installed an update of one of the software packages (QScintilla, sip, 
PyQt) lately, you might not have upgrade all of them.

However, this problem is in no way related to eric3 because it is written in 
pure Python.
