I am working on a PyQt package bundle for OS X. I have everything
installed correctly on my Mac (10.3.6), and am running Eric3 without a
problem. Building everything isn't terribly difficult, but it is very
time-consuming (think two or three days of continuous compiling).
Putting together a package installer is actually harder than building it
because there are so many moving parts (patch Qt, build Qt, build
QScintilla, build SIP, build and install PyQt). I've gotten a
Sourceforge project approved, and as soon as I get everything worked
out, I will announce the release. So, if you can wait a little longer...
