[Pyqt-mac-list] Re: ImportError: Inappropriate file type for dynamic loading

[Patrick S. <pat...@gm...>]

After hours of frustrating madness, I've finally realized that you can't us=
e
pyqt4 with MacPython-2.4.1 or python-2.4.2 from source. Everything works
fine with the MacPython-2.3.5 installed with tiger, as long as qt is
configured with -no-framework.

Is there some dynamic library config option on python-2.4.2 that will fix
this?

.and to think all that was because unittest.TestCase.assertTrue doesn't
exist in 2.3. geeze...
