Hi list,
With the help of our beloved packagers, we're floating towards a model
in which PySide releases made by the core dev team only consist of
source tarballs, updated documentation, and such, while actual binary
packages are provided by packagers taking care of their platforms of
interest. The newest changes are:
- Didier Raboud (OdyX) now takes care of not only the upstream Debian
packaging but also of our Ubuntu PPAs.
There are already packages available for both Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) and
10.10 (Maverick). Furthermore, since 10.10 already has Qt 4.7, that's
probably the easiest way to experiment with Qt 4.7 stuff such as QML on
PySide!
Didier's packaging is also used for our releases on Maemo 5 (Fremantle)
and Harmattan platforms (the latter of which is still not public,
unfortunately). PySide 0.4.1 packages for Fremantle were uploaded to
extras-devel late last night.
- Roman Lacko has caught the ball on Windows packaging and has created
packages for PySide 0.4.1. They are available both for Python 2.6 and
2.7 on Windows. My Windows virtual machine appears to be broken at the
moment so unfortunately I wasn't able to check the packages for further
details.
- Carlos Goncalves (cgoncalves) continues doing a great job in providing
packages via OBS for openSUSE, Fedora, and Mandriva. PySide 0.4.1 is
already available there. I also hope we'll be able to use his packaging
(spec-files) to provide packages for MeeGo (should happen pretty soon
after we get accounts at MeeGo OBS).
- Furthermore, Carlos has been doing Mac OS X packages as well. I'm not
sure about their current status, however.
I'm in progress of migrating the Downloads page at PySide website [1] to
Qt Developer Network wiki [2]. The idea is to let any potential
packagers to edit their package details easier than on the pyside.org
website. I hope to replace the current downloads page with a link to the
wiki still today (assuming Luciano or Hugo or someone else can give me a
hand with the details ;-)).
If you are creating packages for PySide and I've omitted you (apologies
for that), please chime in and add your package info on the wiki pages!
Also, if you have alternative packaging for some platform, go ahead and
add it in the wiki--I wouldn't like to regard any packaging as more
authoritative or "official" than the others.
