Re: [MoM] PythonQt

Thanks a lot Andreas for the revamp and guidance.

I also checked the copyright file, and it seems fully up-to-date.

I just updated the changelog using the gbp dch command you suggested 
earlier.

Question about your recent commits:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pythonqt/-/commit/c2253faca8310c9ede060b46eb61e0ecfb7ff7ac
Why is the syntax sometimes "-- Name " and sometimes "[Name]" ?

https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pythonqt/-/commit/e715afffd5a9a18be607a7fa69bb32a2cb09865d
Why is the repository pointing to sourceforge rather than GitHub ? 
(first and last lines), inbetween is ok

I just checked, and none of these are need anymore! They were either 
merged to upstream or are no longer needed with Qt6 and Python3.

I did the proper changes: the CI now builds the package correctly with 
CMake and Qt6.

However, it fails at the install step, saying it cannot find libPythonQt.so.

In a local build on Ubuntu 26, the install step via make install spits 
out the following:

Install the project...

In the repo, the libpythonqt-dev contains:

lib/libPythonQt*.so usr/lib/

Do you think that the problem is that the default install path is 
/usr/local rather than lib? Or maybe the CI is not calling "make 
install" correctly since I don't see it in the build logs of the pipeline?

Looking at CTK, I see though a different structure in debian/rules, that 
has a custom:

# Runtime Package
dh_install -p$(pkg_run) usr/lib/*.so.*
# Development Package
dh_install -p$(pkg_dev) usr/include
dh_install -p$(pkg_dev) usr/lib/lib*.so

that is not present in PythonQt, but I am not sure if this was something 
specific to CTK because of the libctk0.1 suffixes.


Another question, when running lintian, I got:

/Cannot find a changes file for pythonqt/4.1.0-1. It would be named like:
     pythonqt_4.1.0-1_amd64.changes
     pythonqt_4.1.0-1_multi.changes
     pythonqt_4.1.0-1_all.changes
     pythonqt_4.1.0-1_source.changes/

Here, I do not understand if any action is required.

Side note: I cannot seem to run lintian-brush or routine-update on my 
Ubuntu26, couldn't figure out what package does that.


Best regards, Fernando.
