On the plus side that will give you the same version of PyQt for both versions of Python. On the minus side there may be other applications that depend on the version of PyQt that Ubuntu installs for Python2. > Or > can I go ahead and leave 2.7 as is and just manually install for 3.2? (my > package manager had python 3.2 but not sip and pyqt4 for it.) On the plus side you are not changing Ubuntu's defaults. On the minus side the version of PyQt you use with Python3 may be different to the version you use with Python2.
