Okay, plot unfolding, versioning mixup is a result of fatalsaint apparently triggering a logic flaw in the promotion system Working on the issue.

when i write that, i get following:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
python2.5-qt4-gui: Depends: python2.5-qt4-core (= 4.7-maemo2) but 4.7-maemo5 is to be installed
E: Broken packages


i have extras testing enabled and did the apt-get update as well.

People, please, stand down, there is an issue with the repositories (the issue is not PyQt specific, just affected by it). I will report back when everything is sorted out. Until then, you're only risking getting yourself in an unupdateable state.

Not your fault really, you just triggered it... Promoted a package (pianobar ?) to testing while PyQt itself was in testing. Now, things set as they were, this meant you promoted a NEWER version of PyQt into testing, so when the time came for ME to promote to Extras from testing, I was not promoting the package I originally submitted, but the newer, Qt4.6 ready version your package brought along. Still with me ? 'Cause the plot is about to thicken - as your package depends on just a few of the PyQt modules, we actually ended up with a mix of versions, some packages being available as -maemo5 and some as -maemo3. Nobody's fault really except for the procedure itself, I've been cuckooing about potential race conditions for a while now, it's just that this time around we broke quite a few things in the process

That's... awesome! . Everything breaks around me!!

It would have had to have been pyPianobar, that's the one that depends on pyQt.. and it only depends on:
python2.5-qt4-gui, python2.5-qt4-webkit, python2.5-qt4-network

Which in turn depend on a few more.. but yeah - that's pretty interesting.

It's truly surprising to me though that by promoting *mine*.. it somehow dragged yours along with it?

I am guessing that assumption is - if a package is promoted it is assumed that all packages it depends on are good to go as well? Also, when a package receives 10 votes in testing and then promoted, is it also assumed again that all packages it depends on must also be good to go - since the user package was obviously tested by 10 people to get the votes?

I had an idea that dependency hell was going to cause a problem with this system a while back.. wondering how a package was supposed to move forward if it's dependencies were left behind... but this is very interesting.

This might be related to a problem I started having tonight. I went to reinstall pyPianobar and it's telling me python2.5-qt4-core (= 4.7-maemo4) is missing. I just downloaded pyPianobar the other day and it worked fine.
