ios: PyQt incorrectly including QProcess

[Patrick Stinson]

Ah ok, so I assume you mean that there isn’t a default set of unsupported features for iOS and you have to disable them explicitly in your sysroot.toml?

If so, do you have a list of minimum disabled features for PyQt to build for iOS? So far I’ve run in to PyQt_Process and PyQt_Desktop_OpenGL
