[PyKDE] Installation problems with Mandrake7.1

[Kevin McCormick]

I am having trouble getting PyQt-2.2 installed.  Any help would be
appreciated. My system is Mandrake 7.1, with Python 2.0, Qt-2.2.3,
SIP-2.2, all built and then installed under /usr/local.  I have
gcc-2.95.3 and egcs-2.91.66.  I also have python-1.5.2, qt-1.4.4, and
qt-2.1, which were installed/updated with the Mandrake rpm's under
/usr/lib.  I have done some upgrading/supplementing, since my Mandrake
7.1 "Complete" distribution was lacking some apparently necessary
libraries.  I am trying to put together a python development
environment, but I am finding that the sip/disutils type packages don't
seem to install, since I am having similar troubles with wxPython. 
However, tcl/tk, Pmw, and blt2.4 have installed with no problems. 
Anyway, I get the error message:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/kevin/downloads/tars/PyQt-2.2/qt'
(cd /tmp;
PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages:/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages

hon -c "import qt")

I have searched my system for "libqtc" and cannot find it. I do have
libqtcmodule-2.2.so in /usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/ however.

Below are some hopefully helpful messages taken from the konsole screen:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
   /usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
     during execution
   - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable
     during linking
   - use the `-Wl,--rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag
   - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
