Hi Chris and everyone,

I'm the maintainer of python/pyside and development/shiboken. Appreciate
Chris for the quick rescue of both builds.
I haven't been using pyside for a while but I'm happy to update it to the
latest version, i.e. v1.2.4 (released on 2015-10-14), if there's no
objections.

Cheers,
Kenneth
