Issues

TypeError: QsciScintilla(QWidget parent=None): argument 1 has unexpected type 'PythonConsoleWidget'

Testing Python

To test python with qgis, run python:

PYTHONPATH=/sw/share/qgis24-py27/plugins:/sw/Applications/QGIS-py27-2.4.0.app/Contents/Resources/python:/sw/lib/qt4-mac/lib/python2.7/site-packages /sw/bin/python2.7

Old python command

"Plugin > Python Console" may fail due to "from PyQt4 import pyqtconfig" failure. Delete all the pyqtconfig-related codes in python/console/console.py, as pyqtconfig is deprecated and should not be used. See here.
