How much have you guys been able to test looo's pivy package with python 2.7? Especially on Ubuntu 14.04. how did you handle swig?

When i added the Pivy PPA (Ubuntu 16.04) it upgraded the python-pivy package (Python 2). I didn't remove it since and didn't notice any issues for now. As for Ubuntu 14.04 i haven't done any tests yet.

Thanks triplus. Specifically I'm wondering about QT4 + Py2.7 + looo's pivy package on 16.04. I can test on 14.04. If all is good, I think I can move looo's pivy work to the daily PPA.

I made the same experience as triplus (under Ubuntu 14.04), i.e. that it upgraded the python-pivy package but everything still works fine. Since the wrapping/unwrapping of the Inventor classes still works as expected swig doesn't cause any problems. Note that also python3-pivy with the py3 build works flawlessly.

good to hear different swig versions doesn't have any influence.
