Hi -

I've just downloaded (what I think are) the latest of the Mac versions of:

- Qt (4.6.1 - the "Qt SDK: Complete Development Environment" version)
- PyQt (4.7.1-snapshot-20100120)
- Sip 4.10

Built it according to William Kyngesburye's instructions in his email 
of 11/17/08:

     For SIP:

     export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6
     python configure.py -n -d /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages -b 
/usr/local/bin -e /usr/local/include -v /usr/local/share/sip 
--arch=i386 -s    MacOSX10.6.sdk
     make
     sudo make install

     For PyQt:

     export QTDIR=/Developer/Applications/Qt
     python configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages -b 
/usr/local/bin --use-arch=i386
     make
     sudo make install

I'm on a Mac Mini (32-bit), and using Mac OSX 10.6.2 and Python 2.6.

I'm seeing the same load failure that Brian's reporting - it does 
indeed emanate from this line:

     from PyQt4 import QtOpenGL

I'm going to wipe out my entire Qt, PyQt, and sip installs, and 
retry, on the notion that there's something stale (i.e. from an old 
Qt or PyQt install). Anything else I should try, if this doesn't do 
the trick? In either case, I'll let y'all know if this works or not...
