It looks like your local Qt installation is broken. Check this: $ ldd /home/kannanuv/software/PyQt-x11-gpl-4.7.7/pyrcc/pyrcc4 All Qt related libs must point into /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.7.0/lib Next try to compile a Qt example in your local Qt installation with the usual qmake && make, and check, that it does not interfear with a system Qt installation. Even better, get rid of the local Qt build, including the parts that spread into system dirs, and rebuild the CentOS Qt rpm with the actual Qt version, replacing the official one. Doing so for sip and PyQt4 also results in a nicely reproducible and transferable Qt and PyQt environment. It's always worth the effort. Note that replacing the system Qt with a new rpm is pretty risk free: - the original package(s) can be restored easily - the Qt architects do a good job on providing binary backwards compatibility (unlike many competitors) Pete _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
