[PyQt] Need a recipe for building

[Brian Brown]

Hello folks!

I'm yet another Snow Leopard user and I'm trying to get 4.6 going (I'm  
a commercial PyQt user).

 From a starting place, I'm confused as to what I should be using.

    - The Qt 4.6 technology preview (tp1), or get a particular version  
from their repository?
        - If you just check out the trunk, it claims to be 4.7 and  
doesn't work at all

    - The 4.9 sip release or current snapshot?
    - The 4.6 PyQt release or current snapshot?

If none of this is supported or possible under snow leopard I would  
expect to see that on the web site or in a README or something. If  
there is a method of getting this going, could someone put it on the  
wiki?


I'm trying to build it as 32-bit and so am using arch of i386 - I've  
read the list archives and seen various suggestions to get this to  
work, and I've tried many of them. Qt itself builds and works just  
fine, but I currently get the following with Qt 4.6 tp1, Release 4.6  
PyQt and Release 4.9 sip.
