Source: wxpython4.0 Version: 4.0.4+dfsg-2 Severity: normal Hi,
while backporting to Devuan ascii, which has sip-dev 4.18.1+dfsg-2, I got a build error: Running command: sip /usr/bin/sip -w -o -g -I /tmp/wxpython4.0-4.0.4+dfsg/src -I /tmp/wxpython4.0-4.0.4+dfsg/sip/gen -c /tmp/tmpxXqdbK -b sip/cpp/_core.sbf -X pycode_core:wx/core.py sip/gen/_core.sip sip: sip/gen/display.sip:34: syntax error Command '/usr/bin/sip -w -o -g -I /tmp/wxpython4.0-4.0.4+dfsg/src -I /tmp/wxpython4.0-4.0.4+dfsg/sip/gen -c /tmp/tmpxXqdbK -b sip/cpp/_core.sbf -X pycode_core:wx/core.py sip/gen/_core.sip' failed with exit code 1. Finished command: sip (0.45s) The line in question is "%PreMethodCode", which was introduced in sip 4.19.1, so the Build-Depends need to be tightened here.
