[Qgis-developer] [Qgis-user] QGIS installation problem with Mac OSX 10.8.4 and some Qt4 Modules

[William Kyngesburye]

Could be a small problem with SIP 4.14.7 and Mt Lion (sorry, I'm on Lion, but it's annoying that a minor update is sensitive to system version).  If 4.14.6 works, that's OK, but good to know for updating the INSTALL doc.

What version of Xcode do you have?
