+# PyQt5-minimal
+
+This project consists in a set of build scripts for the continuous integration engine, so as to build a minimal version of the Qt LGPL and PyQt5 GPL packages for linux.
+
+This need came from project [envswitcher-gui](https://github.com/smarie/env-switcher-gui), which is a python app relying on PyQt5 and frozen into an executable using cx_Freeze. With the default PyQt distribution available in conda, the executable distribution ended up being as large as 80Mo! There were two reasons to this: 
+
+* Qt was built using ICU, which brings quite large libraries
+* several non-core usused Qt modules were included in PyQt
+
+## Usage
+
+In the [releases page](https://github.com/smarie/PyQt5-minimal/releases) you will find two kind of release packages:
+
+* Qt*.tar.gz are Qt binary distributions, build with the options described below. Simply extract anywhere and add to your PATH if you wish to use this directly. Note: not sure that the Qt toolchain will work since the prefix might not be the same.
+
+* PyQt*.tar.gz are PyQt 'ready-to-install' distributions. Extract anywhere and run `make install` in the root directory in order to install the package in your current python environment. The PyQt folder will typically end-up in your current python environment's `site-packages` folder.
