Hi,<BR>
<BR>
I am writing in the hope that someone can advise me as to how I can resolve the problem that I have.<BR>
<BR>
My setup-<BR>
OS: Debian, testing (Jessie)<BR>
QGIS: 1.8 (wheezy) and [on a separate machine] 1.9 master (nightly build)<BR>
Python: 2.7.5<BR>
GCC: 4.7.3<BR>
<BR>
Following recent upgrades of (I believe these are the relevant packages) -<BR>
python-sip: 4.14.6-1 <BR>
python-qt4: 4.10.1-1<BR>
<BR>
when I launch QGIS, I get the following error message regarding pyqgis with both QGIS versions<BR>
<BR>
<TT>Couldn't load PyQGIS.</TT><BR>
<TT>Python support will be disabled.</TT><BR>
<BR>
<TT>Traceback (most recent call last):</TT><BR>
<TT> File "", line 1, in </TT><BR>
<TT>RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v9.0 to v9.2 but the qgis.core module requires API v8.1 </TT><BR>
<BR>
<TT>Python version:</TT><BR>
<TT>2.7.5 (default, May 20 2013, 11:53:03) </TT><BR>
<TT>[GCC 4.7.3]</TT><BR>
<BR>
<TT>QGIS version:</TT><BR>
<TT>1.9.0-Master 'Master', exported</TT><BR>
<BR>
-----------<BR>
Having searched the internet & QGIS stackexchange/fora, the only suggestion is to update QGIS, 1.7.4 -> 1.8 as the sip module (4.14.6, on PC) is newer than that being looked for by qgis.core.module.<BR>
Following this advice of upgrading to the latest version, I upgraded QGIS on one of my machines to run 1.9 and I still get the same problem.<BR>
<BR>
Is there a way that I can edit qgis.core.module (and/or other files) to look & accept the latest sip module; or if this is not the way forward, can you please advise (in simple terms for me as I am not a programmer) what I need to do to get QGIS working with its plugins.<BR>
<BR>
Thanking you for your time<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
yours <BR>
