Description
(from Volker Fröhlich on the EL mailing-list)
Mathieu recently approached me, saying the QGIS OpenLayers plugin does
not work with ELGIS.
The plug-in doesn't load, saying it needs QtWebKit installed. Doing that
doesn't solve the problem though. The situation is as follows:
The QtWebKit Python bindings must be built with PyQt4. PyQt4 is a RHEL
package, contrary to QtWebKit, which belongs to EPEL. Due to this, there
are no Python bindings for QtWebKit in RHEL's PyQt4.
If you want to use these bindings, you need to rebuild and maintain
PyQt4 in ELGIS plus. As far as I can see, you should not have to rebuild
any other package as a consequence.

Does it make sense to ask upstream (RHEL) to support it or is it unrealistic that they will?
