[Bug 1633819] Re: Some PyQt4 applications fail to start in Yakkety due to missing PyQt4-WebKit

[themusicgod1]

Natim: it's not helpful to merely say that.  What software specifically
is broken for you? qgis, spyder, anki or something else?  (Mnemosyne has
already been migrated to PyQt5 in newer releases of ubuntu)
