Just installed QtOpenGL but cannot import it (from Python)

Question

I just installed it with apt-get on debian linux with

apt-get install libqt4-opengl

the rest of PyQt4 is available, but I cant get to this new module.

from PyQt4 import QtOpenGL

raises ImportError. any idea what to do?

Solution 1

Did you forget to install the Python bindings?

apt-get install python-qt4-gl

Solution 2

For Python3, I had to do sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt4.qtopengl
