Well, if you build PyQt4 in debug mode I think it's pretty obvious that
you also need the qt4 debug libs, is it? Or did you not specify the
 -u switch?

If you didn't specify -u, then there's a problem in PyQt4's
configure.py. I guess it'll include _debug libs if it finds that qmake
reports these to be there, which of course might not be the case for
distro packages...
