Hi Tom - OK, that got PyQt to install...

Now install of PyQwt fails:

./configure.py -Q ../qwt-5.2 --module-install-path=/opt/qt/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/Qwt5

produces

sip: Deprecation warning: ../sip/qwt5qt4/QwtModule.sip:32: %Module version number should be specified using the 'version' argument
sip: Unable to find file "QtCore/QtCoremod.sip"
SIP failed to generate the C++ code.

-- Tpm

Just to be on the safe side, I also added the package "python-sip-dev"
which might be the one that actually installs the sip binary. I have
both on all of the instances that I tried this on.
