Description Coacher 2016-07-11 06:56:08 UTC 
Hello.

git-cola has started to bundle QtPy [1,2]. This change will be in the next release after git-cola-2.6 (which is currently missing from tree, see [3]).

It would be nice to have QtPy unbundled plus such uniform python bindings could be useful to have in Gentoo on its own.

Upstream: https://github.com/spyder-ide/qtpy
PyPi page: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/QtPy

CC'ing qt team and git-cola devs to see if they are interested.

Reminds me of https://xkcd.com/927/

It's a "simple" pure-python wrapper, so I'm also CC'ing python@ in case they want to take this.
