[Qgis-developer] a little python confusion and problem

[Tim Sutton]

Hi  William

Right so we probably got something confused in teh cmake stuff:

0.8.x needs python but not sip (for mxexport)
0.9.x will need python, sip and PyQt if you want python language bindings.

So your macbook is alive again? :-)

Regards

Tim
