There is a file which was not put there by using MacPorts. Therefore
the
activation was cancelled. This can happen if you manually installed
files into your prefix.
You can force the activation to overwrite the existing files:
sudo port -f activate py25-pyqt4
Actually it was probably put there by an earlier failed install
because of the python25 framework bug.
See
<http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16068>
and
<http://trac.macports.org/ticket/16334>
The port does work after you force the install, but the registry gets
all messed up - macports thinks py25-pyqt4 is active but a "port
contents py25-pyqt4" yields nothing. This is why I'm all for fixing
the framework bug even if it means users having to reinstall all py25-
* ports.
Cheers!
