[Python-modules-team] Bug#558389: What's up?

[Victor Stinner]

Hi, Python3 support is still missing. I look like the following package 
supports Python3, do you plan to integrate it?
http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-
pkglist?action=details;package=python-qt4

python-qt4 of Debian Sid (4.7.3) becomes also a little bit old. There are now 
PyQt 4.7.4, 4.7.5, 4.7.6 4.7.7, 4.8 and 4.8.1. It looks like 4.7.4 now raises 
Python exceptions on an invalid signal connections. I like this behaviour 
because it helps to debug an application.

[Python-modules-team] Bug#558112: The bug comes from the python-sip4

[Victor Stinner]

Hi,

I reported the crash in october 2009:
http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/pipermail/pyqt/2009-October/024707.html

The bug is the SIP library and is a regression of the SIP 4.9, and it's fixed 
in SIP 4.9.1. Related changes from SIP changelog:

-
2009/10/15 10:30:35  phil
Fixed a monkey patching related bug where the patch was an unbound method.


2009/10/14 10:18:48  phil
Fixed a problem monkey patching an instance with a virtual reimplementation
that was a bound method.


2009/10/13 21:02:25  phil
Fixed a bug looking for the reimplementation of a virtual in an MRO that has a
mixin that was a classic class.

SIP 4.9.1 was released the 23st October 2009, but Debian still use the version 
4.9.

The last versions are now:
 * PyQt: 4.7 upstream, 4.6.0 in Debian Sid
 * SIP: 4.10 upstream, 4.9.0 in Debian Sid

It's maybe time to upgrade both packages? :-)

Since SIP 4.9 entered Debian Testing, this crasher becomes a little bit 
critical! Debian Testing may switch quickly to SIP 4.9.1.
