PyQt4 allows building only selected qt modules - would be nice if pyside allowed that too. Looking at the build system, it's already possible - only a matter of adding useflags and passing -DDISABLE_${module}=1 for each disabled module to cmake.
why would you want to do it and which modules?
(In reply to comment #1) > why would you want to do it and which modules? As it's easy to do, the question is "why not ?". As for "which modules ?", as I already wrote, it should match PyQt4 useflag layout for qt splits.
Created attachment 298995 [details] ebuild Pyside seems to only support Qt-4.7 at the moment so I can't test that ebuild on my box. If you have 4.7 could you please test it? You need its latest deps which are already on portage (apiextractor, shiboken, generatorrunner)
Fixed in 1.1.0
