I'm at a loss now. PySide+QML is supposed to be the way 'forward' but that leaves Diablo out. pySide is the *only* way for MeeGo currently as there is no PyQt4 and yet the diablo version is missing a dependency.

The only thing I can think is I'll have to maintain a separate source for Diablo but that means it won't get any UI enhancements which is unfortunate . This.. sucks.

Well, that's a real pooper.
And yet another illustration of just how well supported we were by Nokia. We can't even depend on apps being made available--nevermind that my 486DX4/100MHz can still run modern Linux with fvwm2 as the GUI and still run pyradio and gpodder and other apps just fine. Oh the irony. Nokia. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to bother with their products anymore and it's a shame we're still waiting for MeeGo from Intel. :/

Anyway.. sorry.. totally venting.. but there we go. Another practical example for why I rant all over the forums.
