That would be great. If there was an easy way to make it build, it would 
be really easy to package it

I was able to do it from within Qt Creator, but that doesn't really help 
when packaging :p I tried using qmake, but no luck. Usually I'm lost 
compiling apps unless it's with GNU make ar as a python setup script so 
I'm not the best person to be trying this

Python apps are fairly straight forward, shouldn't be a problem to package
