    Hi,

    I am fairly new to python. Coming from a world of IDEs, I wanted a
    fancier one than IDLE. Hence, I downloaded eric4. When I tried to
    compile it, it asked for PyQt4, which I again downloaded (exe for
    Windows XP) and installed it. It seems to be properly installed as I can
    invoke "import PyQt4" from IDLE without any complaints.

    Sorry, please install PyQt4.
    Error: Module use of python25.dll conflicts with this version of Python.

    So, won't eric4 work with python 2.6? I have searched on the net for
    this, but am unable to find any solution.

    Unfortunately when a new release comes out package authors don't always
    rush to meet the demand for their software by providing a release for
    the new version.

    If the download site doesn't specifically offer a 2.6-compatible version
    that's likely the problem here, sorry :(

    In the meantime take a look at WingIDE - there's a free or low-cost
    version that might meet your needs, and I'd be very surprised if they
    weren't 2.6-compatible on the day of 2.6's release.
