I never did end up at a solution I actually liked but for pyqt5-tools I 
do the PyQt version as primary and the pyqt5-tools version as a 'sub' 
version.  So pyqt5-tools v1.5 for PyQt5 v5.12.3 would be v5.12.3.1.6.  
Sure, that's disgusting.  But, this way you can ~=5.12.3 if you want the 
latest pyqt5-tools for PyQt5 v5.12.3.  Or you can lock to exactly 
==5.12.3.1.6 etc.  I understand that public PyPI shouldn't be considered 
entirely immutable but having to plan on wheels normally becoming 
unavailable isn't going to be great for many people. Especially with the 
rise of pipenv (bleh), and poetry (maybe), and pip-tools.

(and sure, it should probably be pyqt.qt.pyqt5-tools...  :| or 
something)

(also, i feel like these messages have already been sent back and 
forth...)
