[Bug 1409433] Re: Please demote perlqt and its reverse-dependencies to universe

[Dmitry Shachnev]

I have uploaded a version of debconf that does not depend on perlqt,
with Colin's approval.

** Summary changed:

- [MIR] qtenginio-opensource-src and qtwebsockets-opensource-src
+ Please demote perlqt and its reverse-dependencies to universe

** Package changed: qtenginio-opensource-src (Ubuntu) => perlqt (Ubuntu)

** No longer affects: qtwebsockets-opensource-src (Ubuntu)

** Summary changed:

- Please demote perlqt and its reverse-dependencies to universe
+ Please demote perlqt to universe

** Description changed:

+ perlqt was pulled in by debconf and was pulling a bunch of stuff itself:
+ 
+ debconf -> src:perlqt (for libqtgui4-perl) -> libsmokeqt4-dev ->
+ libsmokeqsci3 -> libqscintilla2-11 -> pyqt5 -> (some qt5 modules)
+ 
+ I have uploaded debconf that no longer needs perlqt, so now we can
+ demote:
+ 
+ perlqt
+ pyqt5
+ qscintilla2
+ qtserialport-opensource-src
+ qtx11extras-opensource-src
+ smokeqt
+ 
+ == Original Description ==
  We need these two packages in main as pyqt5 build-depends on them.
  
  Actually pyqt5 in vivid (-release) already build-depends on them, but
  the current packages have been copied from a landing PPA, so the issue
  only raised when I tried to do a (normal) upload of pyqt5.
  
  These packages are not going to be installed by default in any of Ubuntu
  flavors, it this is just a build-time requirement.
  
  Packaging is clean and maintained by us the Debian/Ubuntu Qt/KDE team,
  the license is mostly LGPL. Packaging is in sync with Debian and
  expected to stay so. All dependencies are already in main.
  
  I have asked Timo to subscribe ~ubuntu-qt-packagers to the bug reports.
  
  There are no open bugs in Ubuntu about these packages. The two open bugs
  in Debian are not relevant for Ubuntu (different architectures /
  versions).
