Hi Guix, “python-pyqt” depends on all of Qt. “python-pyqt” is also an input to “python-matplotlib” because that package has a Qt rendering backend.
I wonder if we can make this lighter by default. The scientific Python stack depends on “python-matplotlib”, but it seems like a very expensive dependency as it pulls in *all* of Qt *and* Gtk+. Is it feasible to split up “python-pyqt”? If not, can we reasonably decouple matplotlib from pyqt? -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net
