Hi, I've encountered an odd behaviour in PyQt4 which seems to be peculiar to my Fedora 8 system. I have PyQt 4.4.2, Qt 4.4.0, and Python 2.5.1 installed from packages and they work fine.
I also have PyQt 4.4.3, Qt 4.4.3 and Python 2.5.2 installed locally on both my Fedora 8 system and on my Kubuntu system. On the Kubuntu system everything is fine, but on Fedora 8, windows take a long time to appear for the first time---for example, the file open dialog takes around 14 seconds even when the current directory doesn't have many items. I tried building everything from scratch, I tried both later and earlier versions, and I still have the same problem. The slowness does not affect the locally installed Qt for C++/Qt programs, only for PyQt. Phil hasn't encountered this problem and suggested using debug versions of the Qt libraries to try to trace it; but first I wondered if anyone else had hit the problem and maybe had a fix they could suggest?
