[PyQt] Re: PyQt 4.4.2 GPL installer / missing DLL

[Pierre Raybaut]

About this missing DLL issue, the main difference between the 4.3.3 and
4.4.x Windows installer releases seems to be about the .dll management.
Apparently, since 4.4.1 release, for example, there is not only a QtCore.pyd
file but also a QtCore4.dll and so on. Hence the new "add to path" installer
feature, for Windows to find the QtCore4.dll. The problem is that MATLAB for
example is also using a QtCore4.dll (which is built with MSVS2005, hence the
missing MSVCP80.dll error), and Windows find the MATLAB directory first when
searching the PATH environment variable... so, PyQt is currently not
compatible with MATLAB for example, which is quite a serious problem for me
and a lot of scientific users I know. Unless you have a solution to this
PATH conflicting issue?

Thanks for your help.
