Phil,

Not RHEL 3.  It has SIP but not PyQt.  CentOS has
everything that RHEL 3 has, and more, but PyQt is not
among the addons.

I removed SIP no problem, the only dependency was
sip-devel, which I also removed.  

I downloaded sip 4.1.1 from a fedora mirror, but rpm
would not install it, as it says it needs python 2.3.2
(I have python 2.2 AND python 2.3.4).

For me, maybe the path of least resistance is to start
with a fedora 3 install.  That would have sip 4.1.1
with a compatible python, and PyQt-3.13-1.  

Does this sound workable to you?

Thanks,

Rick
