Same sip version, Debian testing amd64, same revision and still fails as initially reported.

More info: the final error above is preceded by:

[ 61%] Generating core/Makefile, gui/Makefile
sip: /usr/share/sip/PyQt4/QtCore/qxmlstream.sip:213: Incorrect number of arguments to Python slot
sip: /usr/share/sip/PyQt4/QtCore/qxmlstream.sip:213: Incorrect number of arguments to Python slot

such file or directory:

Indeed I don't have any *.sbf files in my QGIS build dir.

Builds fine on my box too.

The error suggests that the problem is in the [[PyQt]]4 sip file so I suggest you to report this to [[PyQt]]4 developers. In meanwhile you can try some other [[PyQt]]4 version to see whether it helps. What version do you use? Have you done any upgrade of it recently?

And I recommend you to close the bug as it's probably unrelated to qgis.

I would first check if it's a Debian testing problem or maybe even just a local installation problem. As it builds fine on both sid and lenny.

That was my point in closing the bug - it even builds fine on Windows, so this doesn't seem to be any qgis problem.

My Pyqt is 4.4.2-4 (stock Debian testing packages).

Sip is 4.7.9-2.

Have you done any upgrade of it recently?

Not sure. Plenty of updates pop in daily. Package changelogs only say when they arrive unstable, not when they are promoted to testing I guess, so I can't check.

lenny is also at 4.4.2-4 and unstable at 4.4.4-6 - both work for me.

check /var/lib/dpkg.log

I can confirm this compile error. After downgrading sip4 from 4.7.9-2 to 4.7.6-1, the error disappeared, and qgis compiled without problem.

I think, the error appears with sip 4.7.9 only, if the build is a >clean build<

system: debian testing amd64

I don't see the point why you're reopening this ticket again. Obviously it's a sip/pyqt4 problem and I don't know what we could do with it.

Still there's no problem building on debian unstable amd64 using it's sip 4.7.9-2, [[PyQt]]4 4.4.4-6, Qt 4.4.3-2.

Here is the problem. We are talking about debian testing, not unstable, which has sip 4.7.9-2, >> [[PyQT]]4 4.4.2-4<< and Qt 4.4.3-2.

The combination from debian testing (sip 4.7.9 & pyqt 4.4.2) doesn't build, but upgrading [[PyQt]] (debian package: python-qt4-*) from debian unstable repository solve the problem. :-)

Just 1 dependent package must be upgraded - python-support).

summa summarum:

1. to wait 5 day (maybe more) to pyqt 4.4.4 hit testing or

2. downgrading sip from 4.7.9 to 4.7.6 or

3. upgrading pyqt from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 (my choice)

thanks
