#qtcore

If you're like me and believe that the world will be a better place if everyone stayed on 2013 SP2 for the foreseeable future, then you might have run into the problem where Maya will refuse to import QtGui or QtCore, even though you've done everything by the book and imported everything into your path. (sip and uic worked, but the DLLs refused to load. Go figure.)

Turns out that Maya isn't as version-agnostic as most people imagine. Fixed it by reverting my installation of PyQt against 4.8.3.1 (which I had to find via here, since the earliest versions of it don't even exist on Riverbank's site anymore)
