[issue29820] Broken link to "GUI Programming with Python: QT Edition" book
New submission from Marco Buttu: In [*] the link to "GUI Programming with Python: QT Edition by Boudewijn Rempt", does not work. I did not find an official web page for this book, but it is really outdated (2002), so maybe we can take only the reference to the Mark Summerfield's book, about PyQt4. Let me know, so in case I will open a PR.

Marco Buttu added the comment: Hi Mariatta, all the other seealso entries (PyGObject, PySide, ...) have references to some specific books and tutorials. No one has a reference to the wiki, maybe because there is already a reference to it (at the end of the page). IMHO we can keep the PyQt description consistent with the other GUIs descriptions, and we can fix the broken URL just removing the reference to the outdated book. What do you think? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29820> _______________________________________
Mariatta Wijaya added the comment: Thanks, Marco. That sounds good. Let's just remove the reference to the books from both PyQt and wxPython. ---------- keywords: +easy stage: -> needs patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29820> _______________________________________

Mariatta Wijaya added the comment: Thanks Marco :) I merged your PR, and backported to 3.5 and 3.6. There are some merge conflict with the 2.7 branch, so I decided not to bother with it. ---------- resolution: -> fixed stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed versions: -Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29820> _______________________________________
