[PyQt] pyuic4 bug with QButtonGroup?

[Jason Tiller]

Hi, All, :)

I encountered what I believe is a bug in pyuic4's generation of
QButtonGroup code.  I created a simple .ui that contains nothing more
than:

    * 2 QRadioButtons
    * 1 QButtonGroup that contains them

Running the output through pyuic4

Python User Interface Compiler 4.7.2 for Qt version 4.6.2

produces a busted ui_*.py file, of which this is a snippet:

----------
...
self.radioButton.setObjectName("radioButton")
self.QtGui.QApplication.translate("Form", "buttonGroup", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8) = QtGui.QButtonGroup(Form)
self.QtGui.QApplication.translate("Form", "buttonGroup", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8).setObjectName("QtGui.QApplication.translate(\"Form\", \"buttonGroup\", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8)")
self.QtGui.QApplication.translate("Form", "buttonGroup", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8).addButton(self.radioButton)
self.radioButton_2 = QtGui.QRadioButton(Form)
self.radioButton_2.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(70, 120, 109, 22))
self.radioButton_2.setObjectName("radioButton_2")
self.QtGui.QApplication.translate("Form", "buttonGroup", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8) = QtGui.QButtonGroup(Form)
...
----------

The error is, as you'd expect:

     self.QtGui.QApplication.translate("Form", "buttonGroup", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8) = QtGui.QButtonGroup(Form)
SyntaxError: can't assign to function call
----------

I've attached the dead-simple untitled.ui file, the translated
ui_untitled.py file, and a Designer screenshot showing my form.

Interestingly, if I run it through 'pyuic4 -p', it launches the GUI
just fine.

Phil, is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks,
