sip/qtext/qextscintillabase.sip: In function `sipWrapperType*
   sipSubClass_QextScintillaBase(void*)':
sip/qtext/qextscintillabase.sip:822: error: `sipClass_QextScintillaLexerLua'
   undeclared (first use this function)
sip/qtext/qextscintillabase.sip:829: error: `sipClass_QextScintillaLexerRuby'

Even though the %Include directives are there:

%Include qextscintillalexerlua.sip
%Include qextscintillalexerperl.sip
%Include qextscintillalexerpython.sip
%Include qextscintillalexerruby.sip

Yes, there are some minor issues to sort out with debugging qtruby programs 
that I've discussed, but I'm impressed. As it showcases both the PyQt/PyKDE 
bindings (I didn't know it can have KDE widgets for instance), and the ruby 
bindings, and it is a KDE app do you think we should submit a story to kde 
dot news?

It works fine with the PyKDE snapshot and PyQt 3.14.1 and sip 4.2.1.
