decide between 32-bit support in the older, Qt Carbon branch, or 64-bit
support in the Qt Cocoa branch. Appropriate installers are available for both
as of Qt-4.6.0, but the beta version of Qt-4.6.0 has proven to introduce numerous
bugs in Qgis. Unfortunately, the 32-bit branch of Qt currently does not build with
python bindings (see notes below). You can achieve support for python in Qgis with
as of Qt-4.5.2, and the release candidate of Qt-4.6.0-cocoa works fairly well
with Qgis as tested with nightly snapshots of sip and pyqt.
