Description kbrownlees 2011-01-17 22:42:44 EET

When installing pyside from the PPA on ubuntu 10.10 I get the following issue
(on two different computers):

kieran@tyrid:~$ tweaky
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File
"/home/kieran/Work/DBS/fpga/trunk/top_level/src/tweaky/gui/mainWindow.py", line
8, in <module>
    from PySide import QtCore, QtGui
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/PySide/__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
    import private
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/PySide/private.py", line 2, in <module>
    from QtCore import __moduleShutdown
ImportError: /usr/lib/libpyside-py26.so.1.0: undefined symbol:
_ZN8Shiboken12TypeResolver5toCppEP7_objectPPvb

It seems the issue is in the PPA there is a mixture of beta1 and beta3 (mainly
shiboken is beta3 while everything else is beta1), see attachment
packages-which-fail.txt and notice that pyside is
1.0.0~beta1-0pyside2~maverick0 while libshiboken is
1.0.0~beta3-0pyside1~maverick0. 

I fixed it by manually installing libshiboken version
1.0.0~beta1-0pyside2~maverick0, holding it, then install python-pyside.

Yes, this is a known issue. The PPA packages are maintained by Didier 'OdyX'
Raboud on a volunteer basis, and he's been struggling to keep up with our beta
release cadence. As far as I know, he is working on the issue.

I'm marking the bug as WAITING.

Didier now managed to get beta 3 packages to the PPA - resolving FIXED.
