When these packages reach Extras, they should replace the old packages seamlessly, no user interaction needed.

The N800, N810 and N900 (up to and including PR1.1.1 firmware) are supported in another thread.

Changes from the previous PyQt4.7 PR1.1 release:

• Full Qt4.6 support
  
• Support for the QMaemo5 module and Maemo specific classes
  
• Skeleton for Qt4.7 support when in shows up in extras-devel
  
• Lib size reduced ~10% across all modules
  
• Removed support for QtHelp, QtAssistant and QtDesigner as these are no longer supported in PR1.2 (indirectly this made the 'Full Install' package smaller)
  
• Removed QtHelp dependency from the demo package, this in turn made make the 'demo/starter pack' a lot smaller.
  
• Demo package updated with screenshots and the annoying 'missing docs' messagege has been removed. Say thanks to mmlado, he did all the work on this and the previous point.
  
• Serious improvements to the OpenGL module (faster, prettier, works on both armel & X86)

PyQt (obviously) needs Qt to work. While PyQt itself is optified, Nokia made the choice of putting Qt on the root partition, i.e. installing PyQt indirectly WILL take up about 10-15MB of root space if you do not already have the respective Qt modules installed.

There are two installable packages. For those who do not read package descriptions, here's the excerpt:

• PyQt4 Full Install - This package contains the python extensions
  
  You need to install this package explicitly ONLY if you wish
  to tinker with Python yourself.
  
  Installing this package will install Python bindings for ALL
  available Qt modules, namely: QtCore, QtDBus,
  QtGui, QtNetwork, phonon, QtSql, QtSVG,
  QtScript, QtTest, QtWebkit, QtOpenGL, QtXML, QtXMLPatterns
  
  
• PyQt4 Demo Python Qt bindings demos, examples and documentation
  
  This package contains Python-specific documentation for PyQt4
  and the Qt example programs ported to Python. It provides a
  reasonable minimum set of modules and bindings to start PyQt
  development. Installing this package will install Python
  bindings for the QtCore, QtGUI and QtXML modules.
  

The two are independently installable, order of (un)installing does not matter.

Now that we have PR1.2, can you let us know what timescale you see for this stuff, or is it all there?

Also is there an easy way I can check for whether I am running on the device or my dev box. The PySide guys do this

Code:

try:
    from PySide.QtMaemo5 import *
    USE_MAEMO = True
except:
    USE_MAEMO = False

anything similiar for PyQt

[/CODE]

Anything I'm doing wrong on the stacked windows. Clearly I'm using Qt4.6 as rotation works

Err...

Code:

try:
    from PyQt4.QtMaemo5 import *
    USE_MAEMO = True
except:
    USE_MAEMO = False

?



I need to see more context... What is configWin ? Does it have a parent ?
