[PyKDE] Designer qt4 plugins + PyQt4

[Gudjon I. Gudjonsson]

Hi
   To close my thread on Qt4-designer. The modules appeared in qt4-designer 
when I added the Qwt5 C++ library. I don't fully understand the dependency 
but it works.
   Although it may seem strange according to my sillyness I managed to upgrade 
my program from PyQt3 & Qwt4 to PyQt4 & Qwt5. But It doesn't work without 
some changes.
When I do :
pyuic4 file.ui > file.py
I get the following lines that give me error messages
from qwt_plot import QwtPlot
mcaForm.setSizeGripEnabled(True)
mcaForm.setModal(True)

When I change: 
from qwt_plot import QwtPlot
to
from PyQt4.Qwt5 import QwtPlot

and remove the other lines, everything works charmingly. I use the following 
lines to compile my ui file:
echo "from PyQt4.Qwt5 import QwtPlot" >file.py
pyuic4 mca_windowbase.ui |grep -v "from qwt_plot import QwtPlot" |grep -v 
setSizeGripEnabled |grep -v setModal >> file.py

Regards
Gudjon
