Is there somewhere I can see the background/motivation for this? I still use PySide quite a bit and was caught by surprise by this migration. I'm sure there's a great reason why it happened, so I'm very curious. |

needs to build with qt5, then it can come back :) |
|
Even though the vanilla Homebrew version of Qt is 4.8? Okay. Don't get me wrong, I definitely look forward to the hopefully-very-soon future where everything is Qt5 friendly ... feel like we've been waiting a while for it. So, rookie question then: is there a way to "brew install" from the boneyard, or should I be looking to download & build the PySide source completely outside of Homebrew now? |
We're removing the reverse dependencies with a plan to actively remove Qt 4 when we've done that. It doesn't build on 10.12 and never will and we're not going to try and fix that as upstream will never support it.
I get it's annoying but stuff like this is what's going to force people to adopt it.

@robpieke it looks like PySide for Qt 5 is already a thing: https://wiki.qt.io/PySide2 so maybe that will make its way over to homebrew/core at some point. |

Thanks for all the replies, much appreciated! :) |

Ok. So I have to maintain a legacy PySide app. It runs on Windows XP. (I know, my life sucks). How do I get the old PySide back? It needs to be for Qt 4.8. Thanks. |
That's up to you; sorry! |
