This is aimed for Ubuntu package maintainers mostly.
I think there's a small typo in one of the python scripts in the
python_installer plugin that trips up installation of python-qgis and
python-qgis-common.
I was getting errors when running apt-get update with both the regular
ubuntu repository and with ubuntugis. The error was:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of python-qgis-common:
python-qgis-common depends on python-qgis (>= 1.3.0-1~hardy3); however:
Package python-qgis is not configured yet.
dpkg: error processing python-qgis-common (--configure):
dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
python-qgis-common
Note that this error was somewhat bogus since the package *was*
installed, and the python installer and other python plugins all seemed
to work fine!
Anyway:
Running dpkg --configure python-qgi python-qgis-common, I saw this:
mi...@rms:~$ sudo dpkg --configure python-qgis-common python-qgis
Setting up python-qgis (1.3.0-1~hardy3) ...
Setting up python-qgis-common (1.3.0-1~hardy3) ...

/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/plugin_installer/ui_qgsplugininstallerbase.py
...
File
"/usr/share/qgis/python/plugins/plugin_installer/ui_qgsplugininstallerbase.py",
line 16
QgsPluginInstallerDialogBase.setWindowIcon(QtGui.QIcon("
^
SyntaxError: EOL while scanning single-quoted string
pycentral: pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (88)
pycentral pkginstall: error byte-compiling files (88)
I then opened the file ui_qgsplugininstallerbase.py and deleted the
newline after QtGui.QIcon("
so the new line looks like:
QgsPluginInstallerDialogBase.setWindowIcon(QtGui.QIcon(""))
Then I could run dpkg --configure successfully.

Micha
