Hi Alan, I tried that, but "pkgfile pyqtconfig.py" simply returns nothing. I specifically checked if it would list the packages a file is part of even if that package is not present and indeed it does list the packages in question.
So, my conclusion is that at this moment there is no package available that will bring in pyqtconfig.py. Regards, Arjen 2017-08-10 10:09 GMT+02:00 Alan W.
