Bug Description

Binary package hint: python-qt4-doc

on ubuntu jaunty, when you start up... python examples/tools/qtdemo/qtdemo.py

you always get an error that it cannot find the documentation.

It's looking in a system configured docpath: /usr/share/qt4/doc/html.
That directory is empty, though.
The correct documentation is elsewhere (in python-qt4-doc package). to get it working did this:

tough% sudo rmdir /usr/share/qt4/doc/html
tough% sudo ln -s /usr/share/doc/python-qt4-doc/html /usr/share/qt4/doc/html

no longer get the complaint. dunno if that's the right thing to do...

I can tell you how this works in Ubuntu:

The demos and Tutorials are in /usr/lib/qt4
You should copy these directories to your home-drive so you can edit them.
