Hello,
I've recently been discussing PyKDE and related packages on kubuntu-devel, and
it seems like the best approach to get up-to-date packages for Hoary is if
the Breezy packages get updated and backported:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/python/python2.4-kde3
http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/python/python2.4-qt3
http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/python/python2.4-sip4-qt3
Currently, there are Debian packages which provide PyKDE snapshot 20050829,
PyQt 3.15 and SIP 4.3.1, and I have successfully built these with revised
dependencies for Hoary. I've also managed to build these newer sources for
Hoary using slightly modified packaging diffs from the above Ubuntu packages
(and with revised dependencies).
So what are the chances of having more up-to-date versions of these packages
in the backports repository?
Paul
