I am running Lenny.

I just installed eric (python ide) and it suggests qt4-designer,
qt4-assistant qt4-linguist and a few others. I can not find either
qt4-assistant, or qt4-linguist. Now, I don't need linguist, but in
order to get help in designer I DO need assistant. I found a link (not
from Debian) which says that assistant is now included in qt4-doc.
Maybe so in the upstream package, but not in the Debian repo. Qt4-doc
suggests www-browser and says nothing about assistant. There are no
html docs in the package, however (the directory is empty). There are
large files with a .qch extension. Are these the doc files? If so,
what do I use to read them and how do I get designer to use it instead
of trying to find assistant?

Or do I need to go back to qt3-designer? I CAN find qt3-assistant.

It seems they are bundled within "qt4-dev-tools":

http://packages.debian.org/lenny/qt4-dev-tools

Also, there is another "standalone" package for "qt4-designer":

http://packages.debian.org/lenny/qt4-designer

THT.
