I'm aware of that.

I don't know how to do this or what sip-install is.
It also seems "hard" do implement this in a TravisCI pipeline.

That sounds easier. But it didn't work. I tried

"python3 -m pip install PyQt5 -vv --global-option --confirm-license"

but again get stuck on the license question prompt. But I haven't seen
any error messages about misusing that extra options.

I checked the manpage of pip (where --global-option is mentioned) and
the install docu of PyQt (where --confirm-license is mentioned) here
https://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt5/installation.html#building-and-installing-from-source

But I'm not sure how to "combine" that options.
