RuntimeError: the PyQt4.QtCore and PyQt5.QtCore modules both wrap the QObject class
See original GitHub issueI try to use pywebview (1.8) for a REMI project on Raspbian Stretch. I am using Python 2.7 and PyQt4. There is also Python 3 and PyQt5 installed on my system. When I start my program as standalone (running it with pywebview) this error occurs:
webview.qt ERROR PyQt5 or one of dependencies is not found
And at the end also this one occurs:
RuntimeError: the PyQt4.QtCore and PyQt5.QtCore modules both wrap the QObject class
It seems like pywebview tries to use both Qt installations?

Okay, I can confirm it now. pywebview is working with Raspbian Jessie (Debian Jessie) and PyQt4. It is NOT working with PyQt4 on any Debian Stretch based distribution.
That was one problem, yes. I did a fresh install and tried a simple import which fails:
from PyQt4.QtWebKit import QWebViewresults in:
ImportError: No module named QtWebKitQtWebKit is no longer supported/installed with PyQt4. So I guess using pywebview with PyQt4 will not work on any new installation.
