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

[Brendon Higgins]

I've been running into this crash, also. I'm currently working around it by 
uninstalling plasma-scriptengine-python, but of course that breaks python-
based plasma widgets.

In my case, I don't use veromix, but I have a small python plasma widget I 
wrote myself. So with plasma-scriptengine-python uninstalled, I see "Could not 
create a Python..." error message on the desktop where my widget should be. 
Presumably any python plasma widget will trigger the crash (though veromix 
seems like it's the only one that is packaged).

Peace,
Brendon
