Bug#773450: can't run laborejo-qt because of ImportError

[Félix Sipma]

$ head /usr/bin/laborejo-qt
#! /usr/bin/python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from time import sleep
from signal import SIGKILL
from os import getpid, kill
if __name__ == "__main__":
    import argparse, os
    parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Laborejo Qt")
    parser.add_argument('infiles', help="One or more lbjs or lbj files to load.", nargs="*")
    parser.add_argument("-n", "--new", help="Start with an empty file (additionally to loaded files)", action="store_true")

$ python3 /usr/bin/laborejo-qt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/laborejo-qt", line 24, in <module>
    import laborejoqt
  File "/usr/share/laborejo/laborejoqt/__init__.py", line 13, in <module>
    from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PyQt4/QtCore.so: undefined symbol: PyString_Type

But I just realized that I had the PYTHONPATH environment variable set (to
/home/user/lib/python2.7/site-packages). I unset it and now I can start
laborejo-qt. 

I don't know if it's It's the first time I have a problem with this PYTHONPATH
but I guess it is probably a problem on my part. Anyway, the relation between
PYTHONPATH and the error message is not obvious...
