Bug 282138 – dev-python/pyside (New package)

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Piotr Malinski 2009-08-20 19:18:17 UTC]

PySide (http://www.pyside.org) is a new project - an LGPL binding to Qt >= 4.5 library. To support this in portage 3 new ebuilds are needed:
- apiextractor*
- boostpythongenerator*
- pyside*

Adding a patch to boost 1.39.0 http://www.chaz6.com/files/boost-1.39.0-pyside.patch (not needed in next: 1.40.0)

Possibly some changes to the build process or Qt stack (by default it wants QtScriptTools which I didn't had. Removed from cmake and it compilled nicely). I've compiled all manualy on ~amd64 amd64. Note that it's not a PyQt4 replacement right now.

Reproducible: Always

A while ago I added apiextractor, boostpythongenerator and pyside to the qting-edge overlay.
Both apiextractor and boostpythongenerator work, but pyside does not because of boost issues. When 1.40.0 is added to the tree it should work (note that the patch you supplied is for boost and not pyside).

Please add #283106 as a dependency of this bug.

I'll take this on behalf of the qt team.

dev-python/pyside-0.2.2 was pushed to qting-edge a while ago.
Please test if it really works, as I'm a Python n00b :)

If anyone cares, I added dev-python/pyside-examples to qting-edge, so you can test this freakin' awesome stuff...

I'm going to add pyside to the tree soonish unless anyone objects.

[Comment 6 Dominik Kapusta (RETIRED) 2009-12-20 17:40:32 UTC]

On tree, excluding pyside-examples which is not (yet?) released as a package.

Thanks.
