pyside6-essentials-uibcdf

Experimental UIBCDF packaging repo for the second member of the provisional Qt-for-Python standalone family.

Current scope:

• Linux
• Python 3.13
• version family: 6.9.2

Role in the family:

• depends on shiboken6-uibcdf
• carries the large base Qt-for-Python runtime boundary
• appears to bring its own Qt base runtime under PySide6/Qt

Current source of truth:

• local manifests copied into this repo:
  • manifests/pyside6_essentials.files.txt
  • manifests/pyside6_essentials.runtime.txt
• first self-contained packaging boundary staged in this repo:
  • package_boundary/site-packages
• original validated environment used to derive that first boundary: /home/diego/Myopt/miniconda3/envs/molsyssuite-qt-spike
• upstream codebase reference:
  • ~/repos@others/pyside-setup

First-pass success criteria:

1. package the PySide6_Essentials wheel boundary in conda form
2. expose:
   • PySide6/libpyside6.abi3.so.6.9
   • PySide6/libpyside6qml.abi3.so.6.9
   • the aligned Qt base runtime under PySide6/Qt
3. remain explicitly experimental until the full family installs cleanly

Current packaging approach:

• first pass is manifest-driven rather than source-build-driven
• the current first-pass boundary is intentionally limited to the Python/runtime payload staged under site-packages
• wrapper commands under bin/ are present in the original wheel manifest but are deferred until the core package boundary is proven
• devtools/conda-build/build.sh copies the vendored PySide6_Essentials boundary from package_boundary/site-packages into $SP_DIR by default
• the source environment can be overridden with:
  • PYSIDE6_ESSENTIALS_UIBCDF_SOURCE_PREFIX

Current known boundary caveats:

• a small subset of PySide6/support/* references is also inconsistent in the observed source environment and is likewise deferred in this first pass
• the upstream wheel manifest includes wrapper commands under bin/ and a few PySide6/scripts/* references that do not map one-to-one onto the currently observed source environment layout
• the first-pass recipe therefore focuses on the core site-packages runtime boundary needed for imports such as PySide6.QtCore
