installing pyqt5 and pyqtdeploy on macos silicon from pypy

Qt5 is on its last legs and Qt 5.15 (LTS) support ends on 26 May 2023.

Is pyqtdeploy abandonware at this point?

Are there any plans to make pyqtdeploy depend on pyqt6 so that it continues
to be usable in the future (and also work on M1)?

Thank you.
