Qt4 is dead and going away. backintime master branch however is already PyQt5 compatible for a long time. It would be nice to have a live ebuild for testing ready.

Michael, please consider adding a snapshot to tree for testing and evaluation if we can eventually replace current stable with it. Samuel, how is 9999 working out so far?
(In reply to Andreas Sturmlechner from comment #2) > Samuel, how is 9999 working out so far? I just tested in tree ebuild, it install and launches properly. I don't really know about usability, but as new qt5 interface launches I'm highly confident it works as well as previous versions. This package is installed here, but I don't use it as my backups are managed trough crontab job with raw rsync. So I can just confirm it installs and launches fine.
