I try to install PyQt to develop Python apps using Qt. I downloaded SIP and PyQt4 from http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk and compiled the packages.
But I encountered a problem while compiling PyQt4:
I ran python configure.py in the Terminal and I got:
Error: Make sure you have a working Qt v4 qmake on your PATH or use the -q
argument to explicitly specify a working Qt v4 qmake.
I looked in Qt settings and i saw the path for qmake defined here 'home/user/.QtSDK/Simulator/Qt/gcc/bin/qmake'. Where else should be this path set up?
And how can i configure qt so i can write code directly into Qt Creator and execute it from there like any other c++ file for example. I installed Qt from the Nokia website and it was installed in /home/user/.QtSDK folder.
Thanks.
The error message says that the PyQt installer cannot find the qmake executable. Running these two commands should solve it:
PATH=$PATH:~/.QtSDK/Simulator/Qt/gcc/bin/
export PATH
Afterwards, resume your installation.
make -q /home/user/.QtSDK/Simulator/Qt/gcc/bin/qmake
Does that work? I'm not sure if the error came up when you ran make, but I assume so. If not, add -q /home/user/.QtSDK/Simulator/Qt/gcc/bin/qmake
to the proper command.
