Hi Alex

are you sure it has been moved? PyQt4 and PySide are separate
projects, both of them should have their own QtSql module. Isn't that
just missing python-qt4-sql package on your side? Maybe your fix
works, but I would be afraid of some incompatibilities between PyQt4
and PySide that are hard to predict.
