Actually I found what I needed shortly after posting my initial request.

Everything was in:

  http://linuxtogo.org/~mickeyl/feed/python/modern

It still works great for me in 0.8.4.

If I ever get some time I would like to get it all setup again.  My goal would 
be to learn how the PyQt stuff was setup and contribut a packages sqlalchemy 
and sqlite if no longer exists.  When I started playing with SQL from Python 
the SqlAlchemy stuff was very interesting.  When I ported to Opie I had to 
recode the SQL access to not use it because I was unable to get it working 
without the OE build environment.

I'm still hoping one day that Qt4 will make it to Familiar and I can start 
recoding everything to Qt4.
