Hi everybody,

I'm just starting to dabble in Python development after spending years with C# and Java, but there's one small thing holding me back: I can't seem to get PySide working for the life of me. Let me explain:

I'm on OS X 10.6.8 and have installed Python 3.3.0 and Qt 4.8.4 with Homebrew. The Python interpreter works fine, and all the Qt utilites are in my $PATH and installed correctly. Homebrew has a package for PySide, but it's only compiled against Python 2.x instead of 3.x (there is an issue about this, https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/issues/16439), so I can't use that.

I tried using the PySide BuildScripts on GitHub, but those fail with an error that I can't seem to resolve (I'll save that for a PySide list, I guess). I can't compile it manually because I don't have the expertise to pass the right options to cmake and tell it where to find all my Python stuff, so I'm really at my wit's end.

I tried installing the Homebrew PySide package anyways, but putting the PySide directory (with __init__.py) in my PYTHONPATH didn't allow me to import anything from PySide; I guess this means that PySide has to be told to compile for 3.x instead of 2.x.

My question: is there anybody who has had success installing PySide on OS X for Python 3.x? There must be a way, I must be missing something... right?

I'll try to find a more relevant PySide list or something to pose this question on but in the meantime, if anybody has any suggestions, I'd appreciate your input. Thanks in advance!
