[Kst] Building Python cmake error

Wed Jul 16 23:54:20 UTC 2014

I tried it, but the __init__ method doesn't make it to the connectToServer
line, it stops at creating the QLocalSocket (I think)  <self.ls
=QtNetwork.QLocalSocket()>

This seems like some sort of configuration issue.  I will see if I can find
some Qt test code to see if it works (and how) - unless you have other
suggestions.

Have people gotten farther than this with pyKst on Windows?  This is a
problem that is hard to miss.

Thanks.
