#188973 — Missing qt5-designer in Stretch

I am running Stretch and installed python3-pyqt, which is supposed to 
provide QtDesigner:

Description: Python 3 bindings for Qt5
  PyQt5 exposes the Qt5 API to Python 3. This package contains the 
following modules:
  * QtCore
  * QtDBus
  * QtDesigner
  * QtGui
  * QtHelp
  * QtNetwork
  * QtPrintSupport
  * QtTest
  * QtWidgets
  * QtXml


but designer does not actually seem to be there.  The only file named 
'designer' on this box is trying to start the long since purged 
qt4-designer.

Aptitude can't find a standalone package for it, either.  It only finds 
qt4-designer, not qt5-designer:

Am I missing something, somewhere?  Or is qt5-designer not packaged for 
Debian?

Designer for Qt5 can be found in the qttools5-dev-tools package
in Stretch.

I installed qttools5-dev-tools package, but it still looks for designer 
and assistant in the old qt4 directory.  What am I doing wrong?

qtchooser is defaulting to a version of qttools5-dev-tools that you do 
not have. You should be able to change this by setting QT_SELECT or by 
editing/symlinking the qtchooser configuration file 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt-default/qtchooser/default.conf . "man 
qtchooser" for details.

What I meant is that qtchooser is defaulting to a version of the qt dev 
tools that you do not have (i.e. qt4).

Thanks!  That did it.  Ijust changed the first line in the config file from:

     /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin

to:

     /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin


All is good, now.

Great! Although you should note that Michael Biebl's suggestion to 
install "qt5-default" will do the same thing but be robust against 
package updates (I like his advice more than mine).

But it wants to install 25 packages in addition to itself and take up 
29.8MB.  That seems excessive to do something that I have already 
aqccomplished with no additional packages.

Hmm, then you might be better off with the straightforward edit of 
default.conf .

#188997 — Missing pyuic5, pyrcc5 and pylupdate5 from python3-pyqt5 (was Re: Missing qt5-designer in Stretch)

Now that QtDesigner is running I can look at the rest of the build chain 
and I find that the programs listed in the subject (pyuic5, pyrcc5 and 
pylupdate5 ) are missing from python3-pyqt5.  According to the docs on 
Sourceforge these should all be included in the upstream package.  Has 
Debian split them off somewhere and not listed it as a Depends, or 
Recommends?

$ apt-file search pyuic5
pyqt5-dev-tools: /usr/bin/pyuic5
pyqt5-dev-tools: /usr/share/man/man1/pyuic5.1.gz

To see what binary packages are built from the same source package
as python3-pyqt5:

1. Get the source package name:

$ apt-cache show python3-pyqt5 | grep ^Source:
Source: pyqt5

2. Get all binary packages associated with it (the "tr" is for better
readability):

$ apt-cache showsrc pyqt5 | grep Binary: | tr ',' '\n'

The reason Debian doesn't have a single binary package is that you
don't actually need these tools to _use_ PyQt5, only to develop it.
(Similarly to C/C++ development, where there also are separate
development packages.) This way you can select what you want to
install.

Christian

Thanks for the tip on how to find all the packages from a single source 
file.  I'm not surprised that the dev tools are in a separate package -- 
I just couldn't find it.  I was looking through the files beginning with 
'python3-pyqt5', or 'python-pyqt5' so I missed the three (all of which I 
want) whose names begin with 'pyqt5' without the 'python' prefix.


Thanks again.

Marc

You probably want qt5-default
