[Python-modules-team] Bug#727555: python-qt4: Crashes plasma-desktop on startup

[Ralf Jung]

Package: python-qt4
Version: 4.10.3-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

Dear Maintainer,

upgrading python-qt4 to 4.10.3-2 and python-sip to 4.15.2-2 makes plasma-desktop crash on startup.
I downgraded both back to their previous versions, now it's working again.

Should I try another combination of versions of these packages?

I have veromix installed, which may be why Python is loaded in plasma-desktop, leading to the crash.

Kind regards
Ralf
