Hey, a man from the Hallowed City, I think shipping PyQt on the
Freeware CD is great, Python & QT seems to be very popular now. But
anyway, I tried running make install a bit at a time, and found out
that this one line is making the difference:

/bin/sh ..libtool --mode=install /usr/freeware/bin/install -c
libqtcmodule.la /usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/libqtcmodule.la

I can run that line after a restart and PyQT programs will work, does
anyone know what it does that is not still effected after a restart?

Thanks
