[PyKDE] ElementTree in PyQt4 latest with py2exe not working

[Javier Sanz]

Hi.
I'm having exactly the same problem, with PyQt GPL 4.1.1, Python 2.5 and Qt
4.2.2.
I fixed "ImportError: No module named elementtree.ElementTree" downloading
and installing ElementTree, as Rick suggested.

Now I'm dealing with the other error you mention (widget-plugins path not
valid), but I don't know what to do. When you mention you solved it by
editing objcreator.py, is that PyQt's source? If that's what you mean, is
there any other way to solve it? I didn't compile PyQt myself, I downloaded
PyQt binaries, and editing PyQt's source is "ugly".

Cheers,
Javier
