Is sip4-tqt an interface layer or a
full replacement to sip? I thought an interface layer yet I
saw this in the build output:
This is SIP 4.10.5 for Python 2.6.4 on linux2.
sip-4.10.2 is installed on my system.
I have TQt3 installed. I tried building sip4-tqt and saw the
following failures:
I am able to build sip4-tqt. Through that I can answer my previous question: sip-tqt is a
full sip package and not an overlay or tqt bindings package for an existing installed
sip.
I was confused because I thought we were building (T)Qt3 bindings like we did with poppler
in tdegraphics. Slackware includes sip as a stock package and I did not realize sip4-tqt
is a replacement package.
Now we have at least two full packages that replace those provided by the distro. The
other being libart_lgpl. I don't mind one way or another, but perhaps we could clarify
that for packagers. :)
