Hi Shogun, and thanks for this rephrasing, it's much clearer and sounds better
to my ears too.
In fact, the packaging is almost ready, and already used in PPAs for Ubuntu
distributions, on the official PPA: https://launchpad.net/~pyside/+archive/ppa
(unfortunately, pyside-tools tests fail to run, but that should be fixed by the
next upstream release).
My current plan is to upload all the PySide stack (apiextractor,
generatorrunner, shiboken, pyside, _pyside-tools_, pyside-mobility) when
upstream tags them 1.0.0 (which should happen in some weeks now). The reason of
the waiting is that as upstream breaks A{P,B}Is frequently during ~beta and ~rc
releases, it's just a great amount of work to do it cleanly on Debian (where I
can break everything on the PPAs).
Don't worry, packaging is mostly ready and will land in unstable rapidly after
PySide 1.0.0 release.
Thanks for your understanding, cheers,
OdyX
