Hi Rainer, and thanks for your bugreport, As pyside has been removed from Squeeze (due to the fact that it evolves too fast), I uploaded the latest new upstream versions for the build-dependency chain of PySide to unstable: apiextractor 0.8.1, generatorrunner 0.6.2 and shiboken 0.5.1. I also got pyside 0.4.2 to experimental, but it is in NEW actually. This experimental version is compiled against Qt4.7 and drops the QtMultimedia module (in favour of the QtDeclarative). PySide being very tied to Qt, it is not really possible to have one single pyside version for many Qt versions (so your case of using "4.6-Pyside" with Qt4.7 is not really planned). So, as Qt4.7 is the future and as PySide will not reach Squeeze anyway, I will probably not upload new "4.6" versions of PySide, hence the "wontfix" tagging. I hope you understand, cheers, OdyX -- Didier Raboud, proud Debian Maintainer (DM). CH-1020 Renens [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
