[PyKDE] KPart crashs

[Kaleb Pederson]

I get the crash using kubuntu using the default pyqt packages:

Python 2.4.3 (#2, Apr 27 2006, 14:43:58)
[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sip
>>> sip.SIP_VERSION
262914
>>> sip.SIP_VERSION_STR
'4.3.2'
>>> import qt
>>> qt.PYQT_VERSION
200449
>>> qt.PYQT_VERSION_STR
'3.15.1'

I presume it will work fine if built from the latest versions.
