[Marble-devel] PyQt and Marble Python bindings

[Yann Goudard]

Hi,

Following your advices, I compiled kdeedu with Python bindings and I got 
a working MarbleWidget. Then I tested use cases I intend to implement in 
my application and it fits well. So I would be glad if you fix the 
QTONLY issues.

Regards,

Yann Goudard
