PyQt-builder extends the capabilities of the sip5 command line tools to 
allow PyQt (and dependent projects) to be built. It will be installed 
automatically if it is needed and can be otherwise ignored.

To build PyQt from source you either...

run sip-install

run sip-wheel then run pip to install the wheel

or run pip (not recommended).
