Its not my opinion it's a fact why should a new platform depend on
deprecated libs or language versions when we know it very soon will
disappear even from upstream projects? And dists?
Its only leads to maintanance hell. And when it disappear developers
and endusers gets angry because apps not work.
AFAIK Jolla don't recommend python2 even if it still exists in MeR or
the repos it may very well dissapear sooner or later.
So if you really want PyQT you better depend on python3 because that
IS the future.
I think PyQt5 supports Python 3 and can be built against it just fine.
Also think about the endusers, I know very well that its fun to play
with every libs and possible combination but still can't hold every
possible combination and endusers are probadly not intrested to
install to many thirdparty repositorys just to get one application
work. Right now it already seems to be an issues with all those
thirdparty dropbox links releases latest days...
