[PyQt] PyQt-4.5 KConfigGroup incompatibility problem?

[Demetrius Cassidy]

Use 4.5.1 instead of 4.5.2 for now. I think there is a problem with QVariant
in 4.5.2, as I've had nothing but issues in that it seems to always return a
QVariant when you call any of it's methods.

I sent an email about this not long ago.
