Dear Phil,

Many thanks. I indeed saw in the doc that "The recommended method of building PyQt5 from source is to unpack the sdist and use SIP’s sip-install program.” but there is no example given on how “sip-install” should be used. Could your provide a link to detailed steps of how this should be done?
Thanks,
FX
