Package: spyder
Version: 2.3.6+dfsg1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source
Tags: patch
Dear maintainer,
The latest version of spyder fails to build from source due to
missing build dependencies. I first spotted this when it was
automatically synced to Ubuntu and failed to build there [1], but I
was also able to reproduce this on Sid via pbuilder.
After adding python3-sip and python-qt4 to build dependencies (see
the attached patch), the package built successfully.
I don't know whether the corresponding python-* packages should be
added as well, it seemed that the test suite was only run with
python3.
