Sascha,

just check my packages on OBS:

Here:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Afrispete%3APyQt

and here:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=home%3Afrispete%3APyQt-next

While they are bit rotten¹ for a while now, the basic specs are sound - 
all new builds are triggered from scripts, which are running for more 
than nine month without any human intervention - therefor the outcome 
is still pretty high ;-)
