Bug 101917 – dev-util/eric-3.5.1 's dependency on PyQt should also be runtime

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Gabe 2005-08-09 17:02:43 UTC]

If eric is emerged via a bin_host (emerge -G eric), eric will not launch due to
in import error in eric.py of qt.  From my tracing, it looks like the problem is
that the PyQt package does not get installed and this is due to PyQt being in
the Runtime Dependency list in eric's ebuild.

If eric is emerge from source, it works fine.

If i manualy emerge -G PyQt, eric then works fine.

From bug 69802, it looks like there is discusion of the need for PyQt at all. 
Well, for my system, it is needed.

Here is my emerge info:

3.

Actual Results:  
works fine, but eric3 will not run due to an import error of qt

Expected Results:  
the emerge -G of eric should have had PyQt in it's dependency list.

Fixed in >=dev-util/eric-3.6.1; it would make more sense to mark some later
version stable, e.g. 3.6.1 has been in portage for 6 months.

stabilization bug is bug 117246, considering fixed
