PyQt5 support #13

Closed jim-easterbrook closed 8 years ago

jim-easterbrook commented 9 years ago

I've added a PyQt5 branch to experiment with switching from PyQt4 to PyQt5. It only works with Python3 on my machine at present because of a problem with the python-keyring library. First impressions are favourable though.

The Python2/Python3 difference was removed by installing the KDE5 'framework-integration' package: http://api.kde.org/frameworks-api/frameworks5-apidocs/frameworkintegration/html/index.html (python-keyring was not attempting to use kwallet when running under Python3). I've had to modify the python-keyring library to make it work in a PyQt5 program - it now ignores kwallet in Python2 or Python3 when PyQt5 is in use.

I've merged the PyQt5 branch back in to 'master', but am still finding incompatibilities with PyQt5. Users are advised to stick with PyQt4 for the time being.

I think I've now found the last PyQt5 incompatibilities, so this issue is closed.
