How to install PyQT , QT and SIP on Mac


Step 1: Install QT


Download and install from here: http://qt-project.org/downloads 

(Locate where the "qmake" is. For example, "/Applications/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/clang_64/bin/qmake" when I choose to install qt at "/Applicaitons/Qt5.1.1")

Step 2: Install SIP


Download the package from here: http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/

Unzip it and "cd" into the resulted folder.

python configure.py

make

sudo make install

(Review the output messages and locate where sip is installed. For example, "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/sip".)

Step 3: Install PyQT


Download the package from here: http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/

Unzip it and "cd" into the resulted folder.

python configure.py --qmake where_qmake_is --sip where_sip_is

(ex. python configure.py --qmake /Applications/Qt5.1.1/5.1.1/clang_64/bin/qmake --sip /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/sip)

make

(then you are done~)
