[PyQt] PyQt5 build issues on OS X

[Patrick Stinson]

Sorry, I didn’t see the rest of your message with the command line. I see in the path to the SYSROOT that this build is for iOS, but you are using your own qt dir. The problem is a mismatch in Qt and PyQt platforms. If you can separate them out that would be ideal.

I began using the build_sysroot.py script to save time, and it’s a great idea, but now I build everything separately. I have attached my comprehensive build notes. They are not perfect step-by-step instructions, but if you apply a few brain cycles to it it might help you.
