[Bug]: Winpython: shim for winqtconsole fails #7467
Description
Prerequisites
- I have written a descriptive issue title.
- I have searched all issues/PRs to ensure it has not already been reported or fixed.
- I have verified that I am using the latest version of Scoop and corresponding bucket.
Package Name
winpython
Expected/Current Behaviour
scoop install winpython should just work, but fails with the current version as there is no more scripts/winqtconsole to create a shim for. Given the history in winpython.github.io it seems that since the 2025-04 release PyQt is not included anymore.
Steps to Reproduce
PS> scoop install winpython
Installing 'winpython' (3.13.11.0) [64bit] from 'main' bucket
Loading WinPython64-3.13.11.0slim.7z from cache
Extracting WinPython64-3.13.11.0slim.7z ... done.
