Dear Maintainer,
The electrum 2.5.1-1 deb is missing a dependency on python-qt4. When I
install it and run "electrum", it says this then fails with exit code 1:
> Error: Could not import PyQt4 on Linux systems, you may try 'sudo apt-get
> install python-qt4'
If i manually install python-qt4 it starts up just fine.
I'm not sure why ${python:Depends} didnt pick it up. I manually added
python-qt4 to the Depends line and now it's fine.
Patch attached.
