#51620: py-pyqt5: fix DBus module build and pyversion conflicts, support multiple Qt5 ports -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: rjvbertin@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Keywords: | Port: py-pyqt5 -------------------------+-------------------------------- This patch addresses a few issues with the new `port:py-pyqt5`: - the DBus component wouldn't build because the dbus-python.h (or else the dbus.h) headerfile wasn't found - QtWebEngine is a huge component which is currently used by only (very) software projects and probably even less ports. It is not installed by default by the `port:qt5` metaport, nor by my own `port:qt5-kde`. Therefore, I suggest building it via a variant (which can become a default variant once QtWebEngine gains traction). - the Designer and QML plugins do not carry Python version information in their name, causing installation conflicts between `py27-pyqt5`, `py34-pyqt5` and `py35-pyqt5`. The configure script has`--designer- plugindir` and `--qml-plugindir` options (probably for exactly this reason) that allow to avoid such conflicts. I have not yet tested whether this is completely transparent under normal use. - the Python PortGroup contains code which overrides the dependency information set by the Qt5 PortGroup. This will become an issue when my `port:qt5-kde`is committed (which is intended to be a drop-in replacement for users accepting to build ports that don't prefer it from source). I have submitted a convenience procedure to be added to the Qt5 PortGroup (#51619) which hides the details of setting up the appropriate Qt5 dependencies; a simple `qt5.depends_component qt5` will pull in `port:qt5` (or `port:qt5-kde`) and the optional `qt5.depends_component qtwebengine` will pull in the corresponding QtWebEngine subport. Until that procedure is added to the Qt5 PortGroup it will of course be defined locally... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/51620> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
