I wanna start programming open-source software, and I have a few questions, this will be of great help and appreciated.

What are the needed packages I have to install to begin developing programs in Python for QT4(Possibly 5)?
Also, what do you all recommend for a IDE, otherwise I'll just stick to Kate, or GEdit?
Also again, Is there any tutorials for QT Programming with Python?

Thanks.

If you're only starting, you might want to avoid GUI programming for a bit...

Qt5? Never heard of it.

Install the python-qt4 package.

Eh, I like Kate myself...


Also again, Is there any tutorials for QT Programming with Python?

Qt with Python is more or less the same as Qt in C++- the reference documentation for which is in qt4-doc (or the HTML version, qt4-doc-html). There are some differences, however, noted in the documentation. The PyQt4 documentation is in python-qt4-doc package, and the main page is at /usr/share/doc/python-qt4-doc/html/pyqt4ref.html.

I lied, was referring to developing with QT. About QT 5, I was also referring to QT 4.5, it's been a long night. lol
