[PATCH] gnu: python-pyqt: Fix build by explicitly setting the stubsdir.

[Hartmut Goebel]

Without this option the stub files are tried to be installed into
the python package's site-package directory.

The patch looks okay to me, but I’d prefer to see your comment about why
this is needed inline above the option.  “PEP 484…” doesn’t tell me
anything, whereas your description in this email was very clear.

You are right. I'll send an updated patch.

[PATCH 0/3] Fixes for python-pyqt

[Hartmut Goebel]

  gnu: python2-pyqt-4: Change package name to python2-pyqt.

       The package *name* contained the version, makeing it impossible to
       install via python2-pyqt@4. Curiously the Pyhton 3 package
       (python-pyqt) already had the correct name.

  gnu: python-pyqt-5.5: Use non-inherited "configure" phase.

       THis is a preperation for the next commit.

  gnu: python-pyqt: Fix build by explicitly setting the stubsdir.

       This is the updated patch.

This allows passing different options for 5.5 than for the main version

@ricardo: Despite our discussion on Saturday I did simply copy the
phase. This is much easier than creating a function to return the phase.
Thanks for taking the time, tough.

Currently the only package that relies on python-pyqt-5.5 and
python2-pyqt-5.5 is calibre. I would consider upgrading calibre and
seeing if it can be built with pyqt-5.6 or pyqt-5.7 and then just
removing python[2]-pyqt-5.5

I updated calibre to the newest version 2.74 (will post the patch
later). It still requires Qt 5.5.

Are you sure? I built 2.63 with pyqt-5.6 on top of your patch and it built fine. I didn't try actually running it though

It build fine, but it does not run :-( But on my system, 2.63 does not
run either.
