Wow.  I had given up rescuing creepy for stretch, but your email bring
me new hope.

I have vague memories of QString moving to somewhere else.  A quick
check indicate that PyQt5 now uses python strings instead.  Perhaps just
dropping QString is the correct approach?

Bug#784619: creepy: Qt5 conversion in progress

[Ross Gammon]

Hi,

I have spent the day doing the Qt4 > Qt5 conversion following the tips from 
Dmitry. See the latest on alioth.

Unfortunately, I get an import error when running creepy after installation:
$ creepy -v
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/creepy", line 14, in 
from PyQt5.QtCore import QString, QThread, SIGNAL, QUrl, QDateTime, QDate, 
QRect, Qt
ImportError: cannot import name QString

According to http://pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/PyQt5/pyqt4_differences.html:
"PyQt4 supports a number of different API versions (QString, QVariant etc.). 
With the exception of QVariant, PyQt5 only implements v2 of those APIs for all 
versions of Python."

I need to do some other stuff now. But will come back to this later in the 
week. Any advice to speed things up will be appreciated.

Regards,

Ross
