There is much discussion about the best/easiest/quickest method of getting a python application using PySide into the Nokia Store. Attila Csipa has this to say: Unfortunately, there is no official recommendation for the time being. For me it sounds that the most feasible way is to provide patches for PySideAssistant that would then result in acceptable packages (since it claims it's building for Harmattan, I would say it's actually a bugfix. Of course, QtCreator (or even Scratchbox) could be used, but that sounds like a massive overkill to me. So, do we have a list of things PySideAssistant does wrong or required things it doesn't do? Benoît HERVIER suggested his PyPackager was the simplest route.
