I'm on debian. There's official debian packages these days that are making their way into both ubuntu and debian.

I'm probably doing something wrong since maybe pyuic4 isn't supposed to be called via subprocess.Popen()? See the INSTALL file under 'build issues'. Your pyuic4 is missing a shebang line at the top of the file. I'm not sure if that's a packaging bug (openSUSE) or pyqt4 bug. debian's pyuic4 has a #!/bin/sh line at the top and thus doesn't have this issue. I should probably change it so that it works either way... i'll see if I can work around that.
