Yes, this is a follow.up to the missing python package.


Try this:
Open Ubuntu software center
Edit -> Software package sources
"Other Software" tab
There should be two entries for ubuntugis-unstable (and nothing from 
ubuntugis-stable)
close the window

click on "AllSoftware", and enter qt4 in the search field
You should have installed python-qt4 4.9.1-2ubuntu1
If not, you should do it manually.

click on the dropdown box next to "All Software", and select 
ubuntugis-unstable. You should have QGIS, and a note that 177 files are 
hidden. Click on that link. You should get a list of all packages from 
ubuntugis, including python-qgis. Clicking on that, you should get 
information on the version python-qgis 1.8.0-1~precise3, and if it is 
installed or not.
