ImportError: No module named 'PyQt5.sip'

[Patrick Stinson]

Now I am asking the same question as the OP. I built Python-3.8.4, sip-5.2.0, and PyQt5-5.14.2 on macOS and got the same error.

I built sip with “python setup.py install”

turin:vendor patrick$ python -c "import PyQt5.QtGui"
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.sip'
