New description:

 Some plugins (e.g. go2streeview) rely on uiparser.py of PyQt4.

 Readresources in uiparser.py of PyQt4 < 4.11.4 uses the old deprecated
 feature elem.getiterator, that now is pending for removal (see
 https://bugs.python.org/issue29209) from Python and generates the
 following Python warning in QGIS 2.18.17:

 {{{
 C:\PROGRA~1\QGIS2~1.18\apps\Python27\lib\site-
 packages\PyQt4\uic\uiparser.py:844:
 PendingDeprecationWarning: This method will be removed in future versions.
 Use 'elem.iter()' or 'list(elem.iter())' instead.
 ...
 }}}

 So, please upgrade PyQt4 (now in OSGeo4W is x86:4.11.3-1 18-Oct-2017 |
 x86_64:4.10.2-1 16-Jun-2013) to a version >= 4.11.4.
