This would be very weird. BTW: Which version of PyQt are you using?

What does the following python script print for you:

>>> import sipconfig
>>> sipcfg = sipconfig.Configuration()
>>> sipcfg.sip_version_str
>>> sipcfg.sip_version_str[:8]

It should print something like 4.4.5, if it doesn't the sip installation
was not done correctly. In that case we'd need a transcript of the
messages generated by the 3 commands you used to build and install sip.
