is this happening after you updated to python2-qt?

I downloaded and installed python2-qt 4.8.2-4, unfortunately I am receiving the same error.

Error:

$ calibre

File "/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/__init__.py", line 8, in <module>
from PyQt4.Qt import QVariant, QFileInfo, QObject, SIGNAL, QBuffer, Qt, \
ImportError: cannot import name QVariant

Package Information:

$ pacman -Qi python2-qt
Name : python2-qt
Version : 4.8.2-4

Works here.

Did you manually installed it? If so you need python2-sip 4.12-4 too

I did manually install it. Downloading python2-sip 4.12-4 corrected the problem. Thanks for your assistance :)
