I've just seen a fix of PyQt4 that basically copy pastes (some of) the removed code to PyQt4:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/PyQt4/pull-request/2#request_diff

What is the benefit of removing this? Is copy pasting the compatibility layer to (possibly many) different projects worth the "cleanup"?

In Fedora, at least 7 packages are broken so far:
