[PyQt] Runtime error with PyQt-5.8

[Patrick Stinson]

You must actually be using an out of date version of libsip.a. I had a similar problem today but with the ‘sip’ executable, in part because of incorrect PATH entries, and also form incorrect sip install paths.

To troubleshoot you could delete the libsip you are linking into your app (statically) or that python is loading (dynamically) and hit “make install” from sip again. check file dates.
