Some more example code to help you get you started with Python 3 + Qt 5 + PyOtherSide on Sailfish OS:
https://github.com/gpodder/gpodder-sailfish
This might be a bit confusing for newcomers, as gPodder's source tree is now split over multiple Git repositories. If there's interest, I might do a more minimalistic and self-contained example of packaging PyOtherSide apps with Sailfish OS.
As far as Python 2 vs Python 3 is concerned: For new projects on Sailfish OS, use Python 3, as Python 2 is slowly going away (also see PEP 404 and PEP 373 for an idea of how upstream Python sees it - the last planned maintenance release of 2.7 at the moment is May 2015, which is only one and a half years away). I won't make it harder than necessary to build PyOtherSide against Python 2, and patches to improve compatibility are welcome, as long as it doesn't make maintaining the Python 3 version more complicated.
Tools like 2to3 make it really easy to migrate existing Python 2 code to Python 3, and if you've read through python2sucks, you should actually be quite happy that we have Python 3.3 in mer-python3 now
If you've ported your Python app to Sailfish OS already, feel free to post screenshots and a link to the Git repo or website (if available) here in this thread, and consider adding/forking it to https://github.com/sailfishapps so it's easily discoverable.

I'm keen to make the switch to Python 3 as soon as it is practical. My code is now Python 2/3 compatible
.However, I also feel where possible, it might be best to make use of the officially supported packages which are part of the target platform, and Sailfish is still on Python 2.7.
An example of this is the python-lxml package, which I require for my app. It's available on Sailfish, but for python 2.7. Do you have any tips on how to handle these situations when packaging for Sailfish?
For development purposes I set up a Python 3 virtualenv in the Sailfish emulator, and installed lxml manually.
Also, I have run in to ssl problems when using Python in mer-python3. It could be that I need to install some more libraries, but openssl is already installed.
Cheers!

I can't seem to build python packages as user in the sdk. Anyone else noticed this?
It must be possible to build packages as user right? Building as root seems to work just fine though. Been using linux since 1998 but can't recall ever having used a hard link before.
Code:
+ /usr/lib/rpm/meego/brp-python-hardlink ln: creating hard link `/home/mersdk/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/sip-4.15.3-1.i386/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sipdistutils.pyo' => `/home/mersdk/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/sip-4.15.3-1.i386/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sipdistutils.pyc': Operation not permitted

Yeah that is the problem with going with python3, that you will have to hunt down libs and bindings yourself. Do you mean pyopenssl?
https://launchpad.net/pyopenssl
They exist in sailfish for py2 but if you need them for py3 you'll probably have to build them yourself ... or hunt them down in some third party repo.

The hard link problem seems to be an issue with vbox in your homedir. It's proably fixable somehow but for now I just switched to using symlinks instead in /usr/lib/rpm/meego/brp-python-hardlink :
After that I ran into another problem that rpm whined about wrong owner/group but I manage to fix that so now I can happily build python packages as user. And I packaged pyqt for arm too:
I have no working hardware to test arm packages, still waiting for sailfish image for the n950 , so the packages are completely untested. But built with the same spec files as i586 so hopefully they work just fine.
Code:
ln -sf $(basename $pyc) "$pyo"
Code:
zypper ar http://enlisy.org/~xerxes2/pkg/sailfish/armv7hl/xerxes2-sailfish-armv7hl.repo zypper ref zypper in pyqt
, so the packages are completely untested. But built with the same spec files as i586 so hopefully they work just fine.

Read here the motivations of thp about PyOtherSide on Qt5.
To use Python 2.x instead of Python 3.3 with PyOtherSide, see thp hint.
So Python developing on Sailfish is again possible, using Qt 5/Qt Quick 2 for GUI and Python for computing, glued by PyOtherSide.

Any experience here to be shared about submitting Python software to Jolla Harbour ?
