安裝PyQt和Qt在Leopard的方法

Building Qt 4 and PyQt on Mac OS X Leopard

Things we need for a successful build:

• Qt Open Source Edition 4 source tarball from Trolltech
  
• SIP source tarball from Riverbank
  
• PyQt source tarball from Riverbank
  

Just let the built-in Archive Utility to extract the tarballs somewhere on your disk.

1. Building Qt

This is pretty straightforward, just follow the instructions:

cd qt-mac-opensource-src-4.5.0/
./configure
make
sudo make install

2. Building SIP

This needs some tweaking, since SIP’s and PyQt’s setup scripts put the module files into a folder that’s not recognized by Python on the new Leopard OS.

cd sip-4.7.1/
python configure.py -d /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages
make
sudo make install

3. Building PyQt

The same applies here.

cd PyQt-mac-gpl-4.3.1/
python configure.py -q /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.2/bin/qmake -d /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages
make
sudo make install

Making the steps above, I was able to run any sample PyQt script. The issue I saw that the menubar constantly says “Python”. I hope one can change this to the application’s title (C++ Qt apps look fine).
