Windows: Will PyQt source run on Python 3.2 ?  I tried to install the 
binary for 3.1 64-bit and that didn't work on 3.2 64-bit.... is it worth 
trying the source distribution, or are the known problems with that?

Ubuntu: Is there a list of all the dependencies?  Trying to figure them 
out in reverse by decoding the errors is, itself, error-prone, if one is 
not an expert in available packages.  The first one was "g++" wasn't 
found, but who's to say what version is required, etc.  After 
downloading one, there were compilation errors, about variables used 
before being initialized, etc.  The release of interest was karmic 
koala, and the machine was around the world from me, and the user 
reasonably proficient, but not a programmer.  I'm a programmer, but not 
up on Ubuntu.  So we sadly decided that using Windows would be easier.  
I would like to get a cross-platform test-bed running here, but this 
experience didn't encourage me in doing that.
