OK, for deviceless (=SDK) development, make sure you have the extras-devel repository enabled and updated in the SDK

apt-get install python2.5-qt4-gui

That should be it. Nothing else is needed (from the packages). If you have Xephyr running, you should see 1:1 what you would on the device. If an import fails, sent it to me so I could take a look.

I am just getting started. The info may be out there. I am not complaining. Just agreeing that it is a bit hard to get going and that it would be nice to have some step by step guidelines for getting started with pyqt on the N900. Are those out there?
OK, OK, since it looks like I'm going to have to assume PyQt maintainership anyway, I might as well put together a guide...
