[PyKDE] Cannot Install Eric3

[Rich Shepard]

   I would really like to try Eric3 but it is fighting me on the installation.

   On my Slackware-10.1 workstation, I have python-2.4.1 installed in
/usr/lib/python-2.4, PyQt-x11-gpl-3.14.1 installed in
/opt/PyQt-x11-gpl-3.14.1, sip-4.2.1 installed in /opt/sip-4.2.1, and
qscintilla-1.62-gpl-1.5.1 installed in /opt/qscintilla-1.62-gpl-1.5.1. Eric3
is currently sitting in /opt/eric-3.6.2.

   From within this last directory, as root, I type 'python install.py' and
see this result:

[root at salmo /opt/eric-3.6.2]# python install.py
Sorry, please install QScintilla and/or reinstall
PyQt with QScintilla support.
Error: No module named qtext

   The entire qtext directory is located in /opt/PyQt-x11-gpl-3.14.1/sip/.
Unfortunately, I cannot find a command line option to let the install script
know where to look for all the qtext files.

   How should I proceed?

Thank you,

Rich
