Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge qt-4.6
2. Emerge PyQt4 (very latest)
3.

Does PyQt4-4.5.4-r4 work with qt-4.6 snapshots? In any case, would you mind reporting the failure upstream to "phil at riverbankcomputing.com"?

Qt v4.6 won't be supported until it is released.
Phil

The email I got from him.

Ok, I guess we'll wait for upstream support then.

[Comment 4 Markos Chandras (RETIRED) 2009-10-09 06:02:53 UTC]

Ok this bug will close as LATER since upstream is not willing to support Qt-4.6
