When qdjango 0.6.0 appears in Debian, replace Ubuntu packaging with direct sync

[Timo Jyrinki]

QDjango build depends on Qt Script which is deprecated by upstream and will be removed in Qt 5.6. If QDjango upstream goes without migration to eg Qt QML's QJSEngine, it's likely that qdjango gets removed from Debian/Ubuntu and libusermetrics becomes unbuildable.

Therefore, please consider options of migrating away from QDjango or seeing how QDjango could be fixed not to use Qt Script.

libusermetrics is currently the only package in Ubuntu build depending on libqdjango-dev.

I have reported an upstream bug (https://github.com/jlaine/qdjango/issues/44)

[Pete Woods (pete-woods)]

Upstream have released qdjango 0.6.0, and will upload into Debian shortly. After that happens we should be able to merge the changes into Ubuntu.

[Pete Woods (pete-woods)]

FYI, upstream have simply removed the -script component of qdjango. Fortunately, as you say, nothing else was using it, so there shouldn't be any fallout from that.

[Pete Woods (pete-woods)]

Upstream have also changed the packaging to build against Qt 5 now. So when 0.6.0 gets into Debian we can replace our diverged packaging with a direct sync from Debian.
