[Python-modules-team] Bug#558389: python-qt4: Shouldn't this package support Python3?

[Per W.]

> Hasn't support for Python3 been added upstream many many months ago?

In June 2009.
5 months before your bug-report.
10 months from now.
Not "many many months" but "many months"...

> No offence, but why is Debian so ridiculously late to support anything related to python3?

Perhaps because you did not fix it.


For py3-support in python-qt4 we need to add py3-support to python-sip
first!
The needed changes are minimal. With the attached files you can create
py3 compatible packages.

I added the string "3.1" to the PYTHONS variable in the debian/rules files.
This is a ugly hack, because it does not work with Python 3.2!

We need to create py3 versions off "/usr/bin/pyversions" and
"/usr/share/python/debian_defaults" or something like that!
