Good Morning,
I got some steps further but didn't succeeded yet with
installing and/or building PyQt5 on pcc64le architecture.

Again I have to ask if it is maybe better to use "pip" to build/install
and not the the explicit "sip-install" step.
The question is how can I throughput the "--confirm-license" option via
"--global-config"? I don't know how.

Please treat this as a feature request to improve the "how to build
PyQt5". Nowhere there is mentioned wich libqt5* packages I need to
install.
I installed hundreds of MB of qt packages via "apt-get install
libqt5*". After that the build process stepped further and run some
hours (because it is only a qemu emulated pcc64le machine).
At the end I have this error output.
cp -f libpyrcc.so pyrcc.abi3.so
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/tmpc57aoiro/pyrcc'
Installing the project...
make install
cd Qt/ && ( test -e Makefile || /usr/lib/qt5/bin/qmake -o Makefile
/tmp/tmpc57aoiro/Qt/Qt.pro ) && make -f Makefile install make[1]:

I understand what happens here. But install PyQt5 as super user isn't
an option. I want to install it as a user.
The reasons for that need is that the package need to be visible in
virtual environments (virtenv).
Can we solve this?
